Girl Scouts Love State Parks Weekend   
September 10-11, 2022

We encourage girls and their troops to visit our local state parks during this weekend and year round.

• Find a State Park near you at (Kansas - ksoutdoors.com/State-Parks) or (Missouri - mostateparks.com) and research things to do at the park that are suitable for everyone in your group. Look for information about park activities and special events on their websites.
• Check the park’s website to see if there are any parking or entry fees.
• Take a hike through the park - pick a route or trail by reviewing a park map to see what types of trails are available. Trail maps are often available on the park’s website.
• Learn about the Leave No Trace principles by visiting lnt.org and discuss how you’ll practice them on your upcoming hunt.
• With your group, pick a date for your adventure. (Can’t go during GSLSP weekend, no worries pick a date that works for your troop/family)
• Consult Girl Scouts Safety Activity Checkpoints (gsksmo.org/en/forms---resources/forms.html) before heading out on an adventure so everyone is safe and prepared!
