It's a day to celebrate being a Girl Scout along with hundreds of your sister Girl Scouts from all around Wisconsin! In this active event, Girl Scouts will earn the Civic Engagement badge for their level by participating in activity stations throughout the Capitol. Some of these stations include meeting with local legislators and organizations, learning about our rights and responsibilities as citizens of our state, gaining skills to be a civic leader, and exploring our state's history in the awe-inspiring Capitol building. We'll rally and make some noise around the Capitol Square. You'll leave feeling empowered and inspired!

This event is for all Girl Scouts levels & adults and takes place at the State Capitol Building in Madison. The cost is $25 per girl and $5 per adult. It is hosted by our sister Girl Scout Council, Girl Scouts of Wisconsin Badgerland.
