GIRL SCOUT PROGRAM PLANNING INFORMATION

When planning to attend a Girl Scout workshop at Wesselman Woods, please keep the following things in mind:

  • Our program schedule fills quickly—sometimes several months in advance—register as early as possible!
  • All Girl Scout programs require full payment in advance.
  • A ratio of one adult for every six girls is required.
  • Programs may be scheduled before and after yours. Your prompt arrival ensures that your program is not compromised. Please advise girls to arrive EARLY.
  • Brownie workshops are designed to complete all requirements needed to earn the badge.
  • Badges earned after completion of our workshops must be purchased through the Girl Scout Council. For troops who would like a patch to remember their visit, a Wesselman Woods patch is available for purchase through the gift shop for $1.50 each. Anytime your troop makes a return trip to Wesselman Woods, smaller nature patches may be purchased for $.50 each, which are designed to fit around the Wesselman patch.
