Travel Information

An important component to the Girl Scout leadership experience is the ability to travel as a troop or with a group locally, nationally and internationally.  Girls and adult volunteers have the opportunity to take their journey outside of their regular meeting place so they can discover their world, connect with others and take action to make the world a better place.  A great way to start that journey is through Girl Scout travel.  Below is basic information regarding the procedures for traveling as a Girl Scout.  Please refer to all insurance coverage and claim information and contact .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) for more information.  As with any Girl Scout adventure, it is best to be prepared and safe.
