    Description

    Do you have a space, business, farm, studio, workplace, or special skill you’d love to share with girls? As a Field Trip Host, you welcome a Girl Scout troop to your location for a hands-on experience that helps girls explore something new.

    Field trips can take many forms—hiking on a trail, visiting a farm, learning to bake, touring a business, trying yoga, exploring art, or seeing how a job or industry works. The goal is to give girls a fun, age-appropriate experience that helps them learn, ask questions, and discover new interests.

    You don’t need to know anything about Girl Scout badges to get involved. We’ll work with you to identify what experience you can offer and connect you with a troop that would be a good fit.

    Commitment Details:

      • Flexible opportunity that can be one-time or recurring
      • Schedule and format are coordinated with the troop and your availability
      • Visits may happen on weekdays, evenings, or weekends
      • Hosts can offer a short experience, tour, demonstration, or interactive activity
      • Ideal for local businesses, nonprofits, farms, studios, outdoor spaces, and community partners

    About GSHNC:

    Girl Scouts builds courage, confidence, and character in girls through hands-on experiences, supportive mentors, and opportunities to try new things. We’re looking for caring adults and community partners who want to help girls grow, learn, and lead—whether that means supporting a troop meeting, hosting a field trip, teaching a skill, helping at an event, or opening doors in the community. No previous Girl Scout experience is required—just a willingness to show up, encourage girls, and make a difference.
