Parks with Day-Only Programming (September 9, 2023)
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.

Spend the day (or overnight!) with your family or troop getting to know one of New Mexico's state parks!
Many parks will have ranger-led activities throughout the weekend just for the Girl Scouts Love State Parks event, and all participants will receive free admission to the park they choose and Youth Girl Scouts will receive a special participation patch. Registration costs $5 per person. Specific activities are dependent on Ranger availability; if your group would like to lead an activity for others at the park, please reach out to Charli Murphy.
