Save Gonzo the Squirrel

Amber recently participated in Project Squirrel via Girl Scouts of USA's partnership with SciStarter to earn her Citizen Scientist badges.  She was inspired by the board game that Chloe and Kyra created to promote pollinator protection.  So, Amber designed "Save Gonzo the Squirrel," a game in which players select characters and practice wildlife conservation as they journey to the center of a park to help rescue an injured squirrel. Of course, in real life, do not attempt to touch an injured animal - find an adult to help!

Junior Journey in a Day: Agent of Change

As many troops are moving to online meetings, it may be fun to attempt a journey.  Last fall, I hosted a Journey in a Day for Juniors to complete the Agent of Change journey in one day-long retreat.  The event was held in a library so we were able to research female change agents in the children's biography section... but girls could research via the internet (maybe watch YouTube videos) in place of that... Leaders, take a look at my plan and feel free to make it your own!
