Heinz Refuge Scouting Award

 

The Heinz Refuge Scouting Award was created to recognize the efforts of those Scouts who seek to learn more about the cultural, historical, and environmental importance surrounding the John Heinz National Wildlife Refuge at Tinicum, and who seek to apply their passion for the environment in their daily lives.

 

Completion of the award requires seeing and experiencing the Refuge grounds and facilities first-hand, learning and applying knowledge obtained from Refuge exhibits and brochures, and participating in Refuge-based activities, service projects, etc.

 

The Heinz Refuge Scouting Award patch depicts the Philadelphia skyline behind a scenic vision of the Refuge, symbolizing the cultural, historical, and environmental importance of the John Heinz National Wildlife Refuge at Tinicum and its role as an urban Refuge.
