Experience The Health Museum after dark with exclusive access, badge work, a demo organ dissection, late-night labs, and a morning celebration!
Cub Scouts will learn essential first aid skills that are age-appropriate through the ranks, from Lions to AOLs. Scouts will learn how to manage various emergency situations like treating cuts, burns, and bites, and how to help someone who is choking. They will create a First Aid kit and simulate how they will use these items to help treat common injuries. These skills and activities help Scouts become more aware of safety, how to prepare, and how to respond to both Scouting activities and everyday life.
