Outdoor Art Explorer
Let nature be your inspiration as you explore, create, and design different kinds of art.

Animal Habitats
Imagine meeting a monkey or kicking up dust with a kangaroo. These animals live in the wild, so we don’t get to spend time with them in their natural homes—their habitats. But that doesn’t mean we can’t find out more about where they live, how they play, and how we can help them thrive.

It’s Your Planet — Love It! Get Moving!
Girls will investigate and innovate as they explore their own energy, the energy of places and spaces, and the energy of getting from here to there. Meet energizing people and “get moving” to get others moving, too!

Voice for Animals
As pet owners, horseback riders, and consumers of beauty products, clothing and animal food products; our relationships with animals play a big role in our lives. What are the specifics of the complex relationship between animals and humans? If girls want to know more so they can make informed choices and help others make them, too, this badge is for them.

Water
Water surrounds us, sometimes in such quantities that we forget how precious it is. Water is both familiar and mysterious. It exists as a liquid, solid, and gas. It falls from the sky and exists deep within the earth. Water can nourish us and challenge us. For this badge, girls experience the bliss of water.

It’s Your Planet—Love It! Justice
On this Journey to justice, girls explore environmental justice (and injustice) from many angles including science, math, and decision-making. Ultimately, they can create and present their own unique definitions for justice!

Troops talk about their experience at EC!

Celebrating the Earth and teaching others, particularly our youth, to care for all creation is an important part of the ministry at EarthConnection. Directed by Sister of Charity Caroljean Willie, EC has begun a partnership with local Girl Scouts to offer programming for all ages.
