"The
North Star Museum of Boy Scouting and Girl Scouting
is an independent institution
whose mission is to collect, preserve, share, and interpret the
history and significance of Boy Scouting and Girl Scouting in the
upper Midwest. It does this through collecting, producing
exhibits both at its building in North St. Paul and traveling
displays that go to community events. It offers tours,
programs, and workshops for adults and kids. The museum was
founded in 1976 and now has a collection that
numbers more than over
150,000 artifacts,
films, uniforms, books and publications, photographs, and other
material." NSSM
