Operation: Scout 
In Operation: Scout, scouts learn what it was like to be a girl in the early 1900s through the exploration of the Molly Brown House Museum. Scouts will explore what girls liked to do for fun and what daily life would have been like for Margaret and her daughter, Helen, who grew up in the house and abroad. This program will help Junior Girl Scouts earn their Playing the Past badge. Participants will take a special self-guided tour of the museum focused on Margaret and her daughter, Helen, who grew up in the house.
This program is available the first Saturday of every month with entry times starting at 10:20am.
Tickets must be purchased at least one week in advance. If you have any questions, please contact education@mollybrown.org or 303-832-4092 ex. 20
