Scout Programs
The programs offered at Stony Brook allow Girl and Boy Scouts to work together to gain an appreciation for the natural world. We offer different programs designed to help your Scouts meet their badge requirements. Self-guided hikes can also be arranged. Programs are offered after school or on weekends. Ask us about opportunities for Eagle or Gold Award projects.

Birthdays are "wild" at Stony Brook! Bring your friends and family for a fun, educational outdoor birthday celebration. Birthday parties are designed for children turning 4 and older, and are two hours in length. Our programs include age appropriate activities, in which children and a teacher naturalist explore the sanctuary through one of seven themes.
