Overnights with the Connecticut Science Center

How do you get Scouts interested in science? Engage them! With 150 hands-on exhibits, a state-of-the-art 3D digital theater, four educational labs, plus exciting programs and events, the Connecticut Science Center offers endless exploration for Scouts and adults alike. Every part of science is at a visitor's fingertips, from Physics to Forensics, Geology to Astronomy. 
Creating unforgettable experiences with science motivates Scouts and visitors of all ages to enthusiastically embrace science at school, at home, and in their communities. Built in 2009 the Connecticut Science Center is a breathtaking facility that has exhibits rivaling the most unique in the world.

We invite Scouts and their families to join the Connecticut Science Center for our Super Science Challenge Overnight Program! Your Scouts will participate in our hands-on egg drop challenge where they will think like engineers and compete in designing a vehicle that can house an egg and cause it to survive a 100 ft. drop! Participants will use skill and creativity to design, test, and re-design their vehicle in our labs then watch as their vehicles are dropped from our 6th floor bridge. In addition, participants will engage in free exploration of our exhibit galleries, they will view one of our films in our 3-D digital theatre, and enjoy a light snack. The morning portion of the program includes a light breakfast, access into our gift shop, and free exploration of the Science Center for the remainder of the day.
