We may have left June and The Great Outdoors Month behind, but that doesn’t mean it should be the last time you enjoy the warmer weather. To encourage girls to spend more time outside, Girl Scouts of Western New York is pleased to announce the Outdoor Guru Challenge!
To win the exclusive outdoor challenge patch, girls must complete a certain number of items from a list of 65 activities, depending on Girl Scouting level:
- Daisy: 20
- Brownie: 25
- Junior: 30
- Cadette: 35
- Senior: 40
- Ambassador: 45
The activities range from watching the sunset and stargazing to earning a Troop Camping Badge. Girls have from July 1 to August 31 to complete as many challenges as possible. When they’re done, they can go to https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/outdoorguru and fill out the form to claim their patch. The form will be active until September 15.
Fortunately for all Girl Scouts, the fun isn’t limited to Western New York. Any girl is invited to take the Outdoor Guru Challenge and order a patch for $3 from us (more details soon).

Good luck, Girl Scouts!

We live in Oklahoma, and my scout completed the Outdoor Guru patch while on vacation in Colorado. I have been trying to figure out how to order the patch for her. Can you help? Thank you in advance.
Hello Amy! Unfortunately, the deadline to order the patch was September 15. You can email girl.experience@gswny.org with additional questions.
