Field Trip Ideas
Taking field trips is a fun part of Girl Scouts - it helps keep your regular meetings from becoming too predictable and gives girls the opportunity to discover new places and have new adventures!
Below we have listed some ideas to get you started. As a new troop, look for field trips that are free or low cost; as your troop earns cookie money that can help keep costs of outings down.
GSNETX has partnered with organizations across our council area to provide discounted costs for many attractions and even the ability for girls to earn badges or fun patches. Find out who our partners are and what opportunities are available for your girls at gsnetx.org/programpartners.
