Programs and Tours Available Year-round for All Ages, Scout Groups and Clubs
Asbury Woods has a wide variety of programs and tours available year-round for youth, adult, and scout groups and clubs. Offerings are available in-person and as outreach, or we can come to you.
Each 1-4 hour program is open to groups of 10 or more and is designed to provide opportunities for participants to experience, study and enjoy nature. We have a program fee of $6.00 per person for a 2-hour program and $8.00 per person for a 3-4 hour program with a minimum of 10 participants or $50 per group.
Scout programs working on a specific badge are $8.00 per person for a 2-hour program or $10.00 per person for a 4-hour program due to the increased supplies required.
