What are you doing this summer? Maybe you are going on a family vacation? Or are you going to camp? If you're like a lot of middle school girls, you may not have anything really planned. Our new Summer Series was created to partner with local businesses to provide you with fun, unique experiences that you wouldn't normally be able to do. Most of the programs are free to attend after your $12 membership for the year. If you have a fun time at one, you can sign up for more throughout the year! It's important to be registered for an event so we know how many supplies to have and also to make sure that we have enough space. Join us for one series event that seems interesting to you or more! It's your summer, love it!

The Cost

The cost to be registered for the year is $12. Most of the series are free events with the exception of a few that have a lot of supplies. Costs for each program are listed in the description.  The Summer Series is for all girls!  You do not have to currently be a registered Girl Scout in order to attend!  Come and see what we're all about!
