Girl Scouts


Zipline

  Girls choose how to challenge themselves at the zipline. From climbing up the rope ladder to scooting off the platform and zipping through the air, each girl finds the opportunity to try something new. All of the necessary equipment and trained volunteer instructors will be provided for troops on the dates/locations listed in the table below.
