Join us for the Great GSofSI Dash (Chester, IL)! You know the TV show where people travel the world by finding clues and completing challenges? We're bringing that idea to Southern Illinois and making it Girl Scout style. Grab your team, follow the map, solve clues, complete Girl Scout skills, decipher puzzles, and more!
The Dash will begin at a central location in Chester, IL that will
be disclosed when registration closes. There, we will have an opening
ceremony and then the race will begin - see you at the finish
line!
