If you’re in sixth grade or older, you can travel independently and meet Girl Scouts from around the world on Girl Scout Destinations!

Girl Scout Destinations generally happen during summer, range from a few days to two weeks, and focus on a variety of topics. Past Girl Scout Destinations have included dog sledding in Minnesota, kayaking in Alaska, engineering in Missouri, astronautics in Alabama, and a service challenge in Costa Rica.

Financial assistance may be available. Priority is given to Girl Scouts traveling on Destinations for the first time. Girl Scouts must participate in the Fall Product Program and Cookie Program to qualify.

Check out upcoming Girl Scout Destinations! (New Destinations are typically posted in August.)

The annual deadline to apply for Girl Scout Destinations is November 1. Girl Scouts may apply for up to four Destinations to increase their chances of being selected. Drop off applications at any Girl Scout Service Center, email or mail to: GSWISE Attn. Destinations, 131 S. 69th St. Milwaukee, WI 53214.
