Girl Scouts entering K-12th grade and Adults: Join us for an outdoor learning weekend for all ages! Adults will be able to choose from a variety of workshops and trainings (see options below). Have a Daisy, Brownie, or Junior? Bring them along for classic camp experiences while you brush up on your skills! In the evenings spend time with your girl scout and put your new skills to the test with an outdoor cooking event accompanied by songs and skits around the campfire. This is a great opportunity to spend time with your girl scout while developing your outdoor skills!
