The Environmental Science Camporee is a hands-on, nature-focused overnight adventure where Girl Scout Cadettes, Seniors, and Ambassadors can unplug and reconnect with the natural world. Join us for a weekend of curiosity, connection, and environmental growth. Through interactive nature-based activities, meaningful exploration, and time spent in nature, girls will deepen their understanding of environmental science while making new friends and experiencing the joy of outdoor discovery.
Weekend Highlights Include:
- Exploring the trails of Camp Sacajawea on guided hikes,
identifying native trees and plants while searching for signs of
local wildlife.
- The stars will become our
classroom as Girl Scouts explore space through guided astronomy
activities.
Through hands-on planting and creative nature crafts, girls will learn how small actions support a thriving plant.
