We offer a variety of opportunities for Girl Scouts to lead their own adventures, challenge themselves to try something new, and push their boundaries.
Experience exciting outdoor adventures that will challenge you and your group to a new level.
It is important to give our Girl Scouts opportunities to develop or improve their outdoor skills in different areas. Research has shown that integrating environmental education and outdoor activities into children’s daily lives received lower ratings for behavioral conduct disorders, anxiety, depression, and obesity than peers with less access to nature. Only through hands on outdoor activities can we truly advance our efforts to have the nation’s youth develop a lifetime of emotional awareness of the natural environment.
GSCI offers a variety of outdoor adventures including summer camp (day, community & overnight camp), equestrian (horseback riding) 20ft and 40ft high ropes course, low ropes/teams course, ziplining, rock climbing, boating/canoeing, and archery.
To request an outdoor adventure, please complete our Outdoor Adventure Request Form. Outdoor requests should be submitted at least 30 days prior to the requested date. If a request is submitted less 30 days prior, it will highly decrease the chances of having availabilty and finding a facilitator for the activity.
