Leave No Trace & Girl Scouts Love State Parks: Mini-Learning Series

Leave No Trace & Girl Scouts Love State Parks: Mini-Learning Series

What You’ll Learn:

The Subaru/Leave No Trace Teams provide proven, research-based skills and education for getting outside in an environmentally sustainable way. This series of four-45 minute webinars will explore the why of each of the Leave No Trace Seven Principles, including tips, tricks and activities for teaching beyond just memorization. Girl Scout staff, council/troop leaders and volunteers will leave with new tools and nuggets to share with Girl Scouts and others both leading up to and beyond the Girl Scouts Love State Parks weekend. Themes from the Girl Scouts’ Eco Badge program will also be woven throughout as well as time to answer any questions you may have. Join us for as many sessions as you can. We hope to see you at all four!
