Programs on the Go

Programs on the Go

A Program on the Go is an easy and flexible way to arrange a program at a date, time and place that works for your area.  You provide the location, we provide everything else. Our program and outdoor program staff are happy to work with you to provide events that meet the needs and interests of your group or service unit.  You may arrange for a program at one of our council camps (as available, must pay our regular rental fees). A second option is to have the program delivered to your area. 


Includes:  Staff to lead program, supplies, and Try-it or Proficiency badge (if applicable).

You provide:  The minimum number of listed girls, Safety-Wise chaperones, and a location.

Date:  Pick a day; Monday through Thursday, 3-8 pm.
