Ready to take your Girl Scout troop camping? Outdoor Level 2 training
is designed for volunteers who want to lead overnight camping trips
and cook with their troop over a campfire. In this hands-on session,
you'll learn key outdoor skills like menu planning, campfire cooking
with tools like pudgy pie irons and Dutch ovens, and how to prepare a
troop camp box-plus much more to help you feel confident
outdoors.
Before attending Outdoor Level 2, you must
complete Outdoor Level 1: Teaching Campfire Safety. These two
trainings can be taken on the same day (with separate registrations)
or scheduled separately.
This training is for any
registered volunteer who plans to attend a camping trip-not just troop
leaders. You'll be cooking a meal as part of the training, so please
note any food allergies when registering.
The session
takes place outdoors, so dress for the weather and wear closed-toe
shoes.
What to bring:
* A filled water bottle
(enough for the day, including lunch)
* Your Adult Health
History form
* A mess kit and dunk bag (if you have them-don't
worry if you don't!)
* Sunscreen, bug spray, and a hat,
depending on the weather
* Optional: a camp chair for
comfort
Prerequisites:
* Outdoor Level 1
