Cadette Troop 8306 earned their Animal Helpers Badge! These Girl Scout were able to work with Office Taylor and her K-9, Max, to learn about police dogs. The troop also had a visit from a service dog-in-training, and were able to learn all about the incredible things service dogs can do. These girls love animals and felt it was amazing to see how some dogs do pretty important things.

Troop 8361 had a BLAST spending the weekend at Camp Evelyn! A weekend full of camping, working on badges, spending time with friends, and exploring the outdoors - what could be better? We can't wait to see this troop's next adventure!

Troop 8603 from Waupun had been working hard for years to plan a trip to Savannah, Georgia - the birthplace of Girl Scouts! This summer, they were able to safely take their trip. They visited some pretty incredible sites, including the Juliette Gordon Low birthplace, Juliette Gordon Low gravesite at the Laurel North Cemetery, and Girl Scouts First Headquarters! They also visited different sites in Savannah, Hilton Head Island in South Carolina, and Tybee Island in Georgia. The trip was full of exploring and having fun together as a troop.
