Girl Scouts in the wild are a magical force of nature. They can transform a peaceful meadow into:
-A high-speed "race you to the bottom" hill
-A log-hopping obstacle course with "bonus points" for untied shoes
-A mysterious medical drama where someone suddenly "doesn't feel good"
By the end of the this engaging, 2-day experience, you'll have:
-Real-world first aid tools designed for outdoor adventures
-Confidence to assess, stabilize, and respond when help isn't nearby
-The ability to smile calmly when someone walks into a tree again
Learn it here. Lead anywhere.
