10 Ways to Have Fun With Girl Scouts This Summer



















It's officially summer! School's out, the sun is shining bright, and now is the perfect time to plan summer fun with your sister Girl Scouts! Keep reading for ten fun ideas on how to make this summer the best one yet.

1. Join us for our second annual Family Fun Run Obstacle Course! Run, stroll, crawl, prance, twirl, and balance at your own pace—this event isn't timed, and everyone who completes the course receives a goodie bag, medal, and bragging rights. Register Today!

2. Go on a troop bike ride. Track how many miles you've pedaled, scope out new routes, and stop along the way to enjoy the view!

3. Head to camp! There are a ton of things to do at summer camp. Whether you want to spend the whole week or just a day, Camp Hoover and The OVAL are perfect destinations to have fun this summer. Register Today!

4. Give back to the environment. Get involved in a beach clean-up, help restore your local park, build a community garden, or educate your peers about the importance of recycling!

5. Learn a new skill! Summer is the perfect time to pick up a new skill to tell your friends about in the falland it's even more fun to be able to learn with your fellow Girl Scouts. Have a group swim lesson or take turns learning how to climb a rock wall.

6. Go on a rafting adventure weekend! Grab your dad or other favorite guy to join us for a weekend of outdoor fun. Me & My Guy Rafting Adventure Weekend includes two nights of camping, a professionally guided rafting trip, movies, meals, archery, skill-building, campfires, and more. Register Today!

7. Brainstorm ideas for a Bronze, Silver, or Gold Award Project. Earning these highest awards is a rewarding experience. During the summer, sit in a quiet spot and brainstorm what you would like to achieve in Girl Scouts for the year ahead!

8. Plan a fun troop scavenger hunt. Hide fun goodies, draw up a map, and go on a scavenger with your friends! 

9. Have a culinary cook-off. Invite your sister Girl Scouts over for a day of cooking or baking! Tell each of the girls to bring an ingredient and have an adult help to execute the recipes.

10. Direct your own play or skit! Interested in the film industry? Gather your troop and direct a silly play or skit that you can do outside.
