What's Your Girl Scout Doing this Summer?

While some people are thinking about the beach and family vacations right now, Girl Scout families are thinking about Resident Camp, Day Camp, Troop Adventure camp and more!

If you're still thinking about a Girl Scout activity for your girl, there are still Day Camps open and a very few Resident Camp spots open.

First, girls can take the 2019 Get Outdoors! Challenge. Visit the GSWO blog for the checklist and how to get your badge! Adults and girls can both earn this badge. Girls will display it on the back of their uniform. I'll be adding mine to my leader bag! My Cadette has already done 34 of her required 35 items. With only 15, I've got some catching up to do!

If you're looking for something you'd like to do as a Girl Scout family, how about the Family Adventure patch? You can find out more here. Once you've earned the patch, the first 100 people to go in person to the Dayton Girl Scout center and show their pictures on social media will get their patch for free!

We'd love to see what you and your family are doing this summer! Join our Service Unit Family Facebook page and share your summer adventures! Until next time,
