"As a professor, I tended to think of history as run by impersonal forces. But when you see it in practice, you see the difference personalities make."

- Henry Kissinger

 

Scout Programming

Cub Scouts from around the Fox Valley have discovered the magic of The History Museum’s Scout programming! This year two new programs and a returning favorite will be offered to area Scouts. Scout Clinics are generally offered on Saturday afternoons and Thursday evenings. All clinics are $5 / participant (Scouts and siblings), all leaders and parents are welcome free of charge. 

Registrations must be received at least 24 hours prior to the clinic. Contact Carolyn Lane to register. Your spot will be reserved once a competed registration form and payment has been received.
