Calling all Junior Girl Scouts out to Hungry Mother State Park. Come for a weekend camp out and earn lots of badges. We will be teaching everyone how to set up camp, start a campfire and cook over a campfire, how to stay fit on our trails through different animal habitats. and so much more! We will play some music and just have a lot of fun in nature throughout the weekend. Anyone in Juniors, getting ready to move up into Juniors or getting ready to move out of Juniors is welcome to attend. More details of where to sign up will be posted in August.

The $10 fee covers materials and supplies for the programs. While the programs will cover many badge requirements for each of the girl scouts, i.e. camping, habitats, cooking, staying fit, hiking, music, etc., the park is unable to supply the actual badges. They are the responsibility of the troop leaders. Once a schedule is set, all badges will be listed here.
