11:00 am - 1:00 pm Groups will rotate through the following activities:

  • Explore the colorful, informative exhibits located in the Interactive Welcome Center in the State Capitol Building to learn about Pennsylvania government and to "vote" on legislation.
  • Take an engaging tour of the State Capitol Building to discover history and take a sneak peak into how and where laws are made.
  • Meet with legislators to discuss their daily responsibilities, share the mission of Girl Scouts, and highlight key initiatives that girls are doing to serve and strengthen their communities.


1:00-2:00pm

  • Enjoy lunch while connecting with Girl Scouts from all over Pennsylvania, making new friends, and sharing your experiences!
