| Type | Program Name | Program Description |
|---|---|---|
| Daisy Scouts | Between Earth and Sky | Girls will explore their surrounding, particularly gardens and living things (including our vermicomposter!). Sharpening their powers of observation, girls will begin to develop their understanding of how our environment works and our relationship with it. |
| Brownies | WOW Wonders of Water | Using Headwaters Park as our playground, girls will explore the Mill Creek Watershed and dive into the water cycle, the importance of clean, natural water, and how it has an effect on our daily lives. |
| Juniors | Get Moving | Explore our energy consumption, both on an individual level and as a community. Various types of atmospheric pollution will be addressed, plus ways we can make a difference in our own home. |
| Cadette | Breathe | This journey focuses upon the air around us and ways to recognize problems and various solutions. Girls will also explore the importance of finding a personal space in nature and how it can have a positive affect on their health. |
| Senior | Sow What? | Explore a very personal matter — our food! Exploring ideas such as healthy soil, composting, and the term locavore, girls will leave with a better understanding of how food affects their health and the variety of options available to them. |
