Earn your GSSA Outdoor Essentials Certification so that you can take
Girl Scouts on overnight camping adventures, lead them in a campfire
activity, or help them progress through GSSA's Outdoor
Essentials Progressive Patch Program. Once you arrive, you'll
have the opportunity to practice and demonstrate your own outdoor
skills: fire safety, outdoor cooking, knife safety, cleaning up,
knots, and shelter-building will all be a part of this training!
Bring a sack lunch and be prepared to start training at 11:00
am!
