Austin Planetarium - Discovery Dome

The Austin Planetarium Discovery Dome combines an inflatable dome with a digital video projection system and stereo sound to provide you with a truly out-of-this-world experience. Surrounded by 360° of action, you will be immersed in images of the night sky and first-class planetarium shows about astronomy and space travel. Shows will be scheduled 3 times per hour. For more information about the Austin Planetarium, please visit here.

Scouts of all ages and their same-age siblings can practice their shooting skills at the BB Gun and Archery Range.

The Boy Scouts of America adheres to its longstanding policy of teaching its youth and adult members the safe, responsible, intelligent handling, care, and use of firearms, airguns, and BB guns in planned, carefully managed, and supervised programs.

*Archery and BB gun shooting are restricted to day camps, Cub Scout/Webelos Scout resident camps, council-managed family camping programs, or to council activities where there are properly trained supervisors and all standards for BSA shooting sports are enforced.
Cub Scouts are not permitted to use any other type of handgun or firearm.
