Between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m., the Scout Mission educational programme will take place, which will challenge families to become a true army for a second week. Thus, the types of armed forces and equipment of the Bulgarian Army are presented in an attractive way, and the participants have the opportunity to be part of a military mission, to test their speed, orientation and logic. The successful completion of the mission, of course, brings a reward. The fastest, who find the exact coordinates of one of the most impressive combat vehicles from the museum’s outdoor exhibits, will be the first to enter and examine the museum from the inside.
