Seashore Patch Program

The Seashore Patch Program is designed
for organized children's groups, including boy and girl scouts, to learn about the barrier islands, coastal forts, plants, and animals of the Gulf Islands National Seashore. Leaders may pick up handbooks at the Naval Live Oaks Visitor Center, Fort Pickens Visitor Center or Fort Barrancas Visitor Center. Children must complete eight of the indoor or outdoor activities in the handbooks.

Participation in the Seashore Patch Program is a fun way for children and their leaders to learn about the National Seashore and a great reason to visit the park.

Boy and Girl Scout groups may also participate in the Service to America Scout Patch Program.

Group members who complete the handbook requirements receive a 20 percent discount on either the Seashore pin or the Seashore patch. Return the questionnaire about the program when purchasing the pins or patches. For information about the program please call the Fort Pickens Visitor Center at 850/934-2635.
