The Old Courthouse serves as the backdrop for this program where scouts will learn about local government, past and present, and how they can be active citizens today.

Reservations for Daisy Scouts, Brownies, and Juniors are taken year-round. Approximately 50 minutes in length, each program highlights a different, age-appropriate theme. A one-month advance reservation is required. Minimum of six scouts required (max 30). Groups with less than the minimum may be placed with another group, if available.

For reservations call 1-877-982-1410.
The Old Courthouse is currently closed for rennovation. All programs are taking place at the Gateway Arch.
