Spend a fun-filled weekend training to become an Adventurers Coordinator! Newcomers will complete Event Training and will join the returning coordinators for Adventurers training, including going through the steps to plan an actual event. Newcomers must complete the online Trip Training before the weekend. Our theme this year is A Back to Basics, and weekend highlights will include:
- "Back to Basics" programs: flag ceremony, investiture/rededication, Girl Scouts' Own, SWAPS, s'mores, campfire songs & skits, service project, and lots of good ol' Girl Scout traditions!
- "Back to Basics" costume contest at the banquet (what reminds you of Girl Scouting back in the day?)
- 5 delicious meals on Saturday and Sunday
- Adventurers annual banquet and meeting
- new coordinators trainings
- spending time with sister Girl Scouts
- annual silent auction and book sale to raise funds for girl scholarships
- accommodations include a lodge with bunk rooms and bathrooms (see photos below) or you can tent/hammock camp outside in the field.
This training weekend is so fun and popular that many people attend
year after year. Send in your registration now!
