Girl Scouts Love State Parks
Through the Girl Scouts Love State Parks program, Girl Scout troops, friends, and families celebrate their shared love for the outdoors at local state parks. The program kicks off at the beginning of each summer with the Girl Scouts Love the Outdoors Patch Activity Guide and culminates with a series of field days in early fall.
