SCOUT PROGRAMS
Are you seeking a lively and interactive outdoor adventure for your Scout Group? Whether you’re aiming to complete a Scout badge requirement or simply looking for a fun outing, bring your scouts to AMM! Our programs feature outdoor exploration, hands-on activities, experiments, and skill-building exercises. Choose from our Signature Scout Programs or customize a program tailored to meet your specific badge requirements.
Oystering in the Chesapeake Bay
Use real oyster tongs to “harvest” oysters (experience similar to commercial oystering), use model tools and learn about technological advances in the oyster industry through an oyster harvesting game, discover the wardrobe of a waterman – what tools and gear they need to succeed, and more! How have humans impacted the oyster population and how can we find a balance so that our ecosystems, economy, and cultural heritage thrive?
Animals and Habitats of the Chesapeake Bay Watershed
Learn about iconic Bay species including oysters, crabs, eels, and fish through hands-on investigations and up-close encounters. Catch and identify animals using a seine net (seasonal) and hike the Park Campus to identify a variety of animal habitats. (Activities and animals dependent upon seasonal availability.) How can we be good stewards of the environment and take care of the plants and animals who call the watershed home?
The Water in our Watershed
Measure water quality using scientific tools to gain insights into the health of our Chesapeake Bay, use a terrain model to observe the movement of water and polluted runoff throughout our watershed, conduct an experiment to identify what type of water makes up the Chesapeake Bay, and more! What can we do to improve water quality and prevent pollution in our beautiful Bay?
