Spend the afternoon discovering all about trees! Through hands-on crafts and activities, learn about the parts of a tree and their functions, how trees are used in everyday life, and more as part of this tree-iffic program! This program is designed to fulfill the requirements for the Trees Badge. We have JCRA patches for all scouts who attend the program, but troops or individual Scouts will need to purchase the Girl Scout Trees Badge from their Girl Scout Store. Registration for this program is open to troops or individual Scouts. Please make sure troop numbers are included in your registration. If attending as a troop, we will group Scouts together to rotate through the stations as a troop. Individual Scouts will be placed together to make a group or added to a troop to rotate through the stations. Troop leaders or parents are expected to stay with the Scouts to supervise during the entire program.

The Girl Scout Program is an afternoon educational event at the JC Raulston Arboretum focused on tree biology and conservation. Scouts will rotate through interactive stations to learn how trees function and how we use them in our daily lives. The activities are specifically designed to meet the requirements for the Girl Scout Trees Badge. What to Know: Registration costs $15 and is open to both individual scouts and full troops. You must include your troop number when registering so your group can stay together during the station rotations. Parents or troop leaders must remain on-site to supervise their children for the duration of the event. While attendees receive a JCRA patch, you must purchase the official Girl Scout Trees Badge separately from the Girl Scout Store. This is a smart Sunday pick because it offers a structured, hands-on way to complete badge requirements outdoors. The organized stations keep kids moving and learning without the pressure of planning the lesson yourself.
