You
live in a world of screens—smartphone! laptop! TV! tablet!—and
sometimes you just want to get away from it all. We get it. That’s why
you can focus your whole Girl Scout experience on getting outdoors.
You’ll
develop the kind of outdoor skills it’s hard to get anywhere else.
Skills like building a campfire, pitching a tent, or canoeing across a lake.
Hey,
how about adding some horseback riding, rock climbing, and archery to
the mix? Round things out with a ropes course, some zip lining, and
maybe a week-long back-country trek, and you’ll find out how much fun
it can be to unplug and explore the world around you.
Join
a troop and you’ll always have something to look forward to! You’ll
get together with your friends to play games and sing songs; go on
field trips to museums and nature centers; and explore the outdoors.
Earn
badges as you learn to do all kinds of fun things—like paint pictures,
camp out, make jewelry, go geocaching, create inventions, conduct
science experiments, plant gardens, and oh, so much more.
Whether
you get together once a week or once a month, you’ll find yourself
counting the days until your troop meeting starts—and the fun continues!
Girl Scouts love to travel—from the field trips they take as Brownies to the global adventures they go on as teens. If you love exploring different places and cultures, then Girl Scouts is the place for you.
You
can experience all that our country has to offer, whether you’re
“blasting off” at Space Camp in Alabama, taking in a Broadway show in
New York City, or visiting the birthplace of Girl Scouts’ founder,
Juliette Gordon Low, in Savannah, Georgia. And you can plan even
bigger adventures around the world, traveling with other Girl Scouts
who share your love of adventure.
Check
out Girl
Scout Destinations, the ultimate adventure program for girls
ages 11 and older. With a ton of different trips to apply for every
year—from surfing camp on the east coast and breathtaking hikes out
west, to the crazy-cool wonder of new cultures abroad—there’s
something amazing for everyone to experience.
Make friends from all over the country as you travel with Girl Scouts from different states, see and learn new things, and pack your bags full of inspiring, life-changing experiences and memories. Find your trip today!
