Scouting at the Tijuana Estuary

Scout groups interested in discovering the Tijuana Estuary will find that they can fulfill badge requirements, parts of a journey, or a required project. Programs can either be guided by Reserve staff or self-guided by troop leaders or a combination of the two. Girl Scout leaders can click on the badge name to see which requirements can be met at the Tijuana Estuary.
