The Girl Scouts in our Beyond Bars Troop started the summer off right with a camping trip - one of the pillars of the Girl Scout Leadership Experience.
The girls spent the weekend at Camp Whippoorwhill, a 19-acre wooded site located on the Magothy River in Pasadena, MD. During the camp, Environmental Resources Management worked with the Girl Scouts on environmental science and conservation activities.Camp attendees also had the opportunity to canoe on the Magothy River.
Currently, Girl Scouts Beyond Bars is serving 33 girls. Over the past 25 years, more than 400 girls have been given the support they need as they cope with the loss of a parent and the isolation that comes from the stigma of their mothers’ involvement in the criminal justice system.
Your commitment to Girl Scouts Beyond Bars helps us ensure that ALL girls in central Maryland have the opportunity to be a G.I.R.L. (Go-getter, Innovator, Risk-taker, Leader)™.
