Camp
Girls need connection more than ever, and camp is the perfect place for it. Whether you’re joining us at a program event as a family or reserving a camp property for your next troop meeting, we can’t wait to see you around the campfire! Taking girls outside can be a fun time for everyone as girls develop outdoor skills and a passion for nature.
Volunteer Toolkit
The Volunteer Toolkit (VTK) is a fully customizable digital planning tool accessible on all computers, tablets, or mobile devices. The VTK provides you with Girl Scout program content, award requirements, and other resources. Girls have more fun when they can shape their own experience, do hands-on activities, and work together as teams. With the VTK, you can take the guesswork out of planning and spend more time exploring topics with girls!
