Girl Scouts of Southern Illinois wants to make sure that there is no girl left inside! Exploring nature and learning outdoor skills is vital to each Girl Scout's mental and spiritual development. Girl Scouts of Southern Illinois' Outdoor Patch Programs help introduce girls to exciting outdoors adventure!

explore—from your window, a campsite, the sidewalk, or an open trail.
Based on your grade level, complete the required number of activities
to earn an awesome new patch. Download the Girl Scouts Love the Outdoors Challenge
Worksheet to get started.
The Girl Scout Tree Promise
Thanks for making the Girl Scout Tree Promise!
Join our mission to protect the planet from
the effects of climate change.
In partnership with the Elliott Wildlife Values Project, American Forests, and Johnson & Johnson Foundation, Girl Scouts are launching a bold tree planting and conservation initiative. Girl Scouts across the country are setting out to plant five million trees in five years, and to protect and honor new and existing trees. Not only is this great for wildlife, it will also help ease the effects of climate change. Girl Scouts have planted thousands of trees in all 50 states and globally. Let’s keep going! Download the Girl Scout Tree Promise Toolkit to get started.
