From the organizer:

Space Center Houston Overnight Experiences is excited to welcome back Scouts. To ensure a safe environment for our campers and crew members, we ask all participants to review our new health and safety policies and procedures as well as our Overnight Experience FAQ before participating.

Each overnight is tailored to the individual ages of the Scouts. The activities are badge-inspired, STEM-based and all about space! Come experience Space Center Houston’s Boy Scouts of America Overnight activities. Immerse yourself in a setting where your imagination can take flight as you design, build, create, program and launch into a new world of opportunity and exploration.

Demonstrate Scout leadership skills as you work with your peers to solve the real-world problems NASA often encounters. How can you make an astronaut’s job easier? How do you program a robot? How do you plan an astronaut rescue mission on Mars? Get ready to launch into an incredible experience in our Boy Scouts of America Overnights.
