Girl Scouts entering 4th-5th grade in the fall. Junior Girl Scouts, and those bridging to Juniors, will spend an inspiring week unlocking their creativity as they earn the Junior Scribe Badge. Through a series of fun, hands-on activities-including writing exercises, storytelling games, journaling prompts, and acting challenges-participants will explore the power of their own voices and imaginations. Throughout the week, they'll craft original stories that reflect their experiences, bring characters to life through performance, and discover how writing can spark change, express emotions, and build connections with others. Along the way, campers will also enjoy classic Girl Scout fun, teamwork, and meaningful moments of friendship. Participants should bring a sack lunch each day. At the end of the program, they'll proudly take home their Junior Scribe Badge-along with new skills, confidence, and memories that will last well beyond the week.
