The Pioneer Woman Museum will host its annual Scout Spring Fling on Saturday, March 11, beginning at 10 am. Events will include hands-on programming for ages six and up.
Through a partnership with the Pioneer Genealogical Society, scouts will be introduced to tracking their family history. The first fifty participants will receive a free family genealogy workbook, courtesy of the Pioneer Genealogical Society. The activity will meet some of the requirements related to scout badges and patches.
Adansonia Wildlife Inc. will be on hand this year with live insects and other small animals for participants to interact with up close. “We are so excited to be part of the museum’s annual Scout Spring Fling. We will have lots of bugs for the kids and parents to look at and learn about,” said Ciara Utech, executive director and owner of Adansonia Wildlife Inc.

We enjoying having the scouts here so much,” said Pioneer Woman Museum Director Robbin Davis. “It’s our kick off to the spring.”
