Trips and Travel
There are many opportunities to travel with Girl Scouts. Learning to plan trips and travel as a group is a foundation of Girl Scouting. Travel is about fun, exploration and progressive experiences in appreciating the outdoors, new places and other cultures. As girls grow older and become more seasoned travelers, the scope of their travel broadens to include trips across the country or abroad on girl-planned trips with sister Girl Scouts, or as an individual in a council- or Girl Scouts of the USA-sponsored destination. Register for these events as noted in their descriptions.
