Join us for a fun, interactive training designed to help you prepare your Girl Scouts to plan and take truly girl-led trips! This training is required before your first indoor overnight trip lasting one to three nights within six hours of your meeting place or within the council borders. An indoor overnight trip is defined as staying overnight in an enclosed structure with running water, heat, flush toilets, electricity, kitchen facilities or a restaurant, and phone/cell coverage.
Objectives/Outcomes of this training:
- Learn how to teach your troop to make a plan for an outing including transportation, budget, meals, dress, gear, and activity planning.
- Learn to prepare Girl Scouts to pack for themselves and the troop.
- Prepare to lead your Girl Scouts in progression from day trips to almost overnights to overnight trips lasting three or fewer nights.
- Continue progression in how to keep everything you do with your troop girl-led.
- Learn how to help Girl Scouts and their caregivers prepare for them to sleep without adults in the room.

Live Virtual Training Expectations

- Participants joining from vehicles will be removed from the training call for their safety.
- Review the training information and prerequisites and ensure that you've taken all necessary steps to complete them.
- Participate fully throughout training. These trainings require your full attention, with little-to-no interruption.
- Participants must be present for the entire course in order to receive credit for the training. Late arrival participation will be evaluated by the trainer.
- Live virtual training is best experienced on a computer, laptop, or tablet.
- This is an active training that will not work well on a phone and may be challenging on a tablet.
- Please request accommodations prior to the training date if needed.
- On-camera participation and full engagement throughout the entire training are required for credit.
