Friends of Land Between the Lakes – March 11, 2025 – The Woodlands Nature Station in Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area invites scout troops and families to Girl Scout Day: Wonders of Nature on Saturday, March 22nd, from 10 AM to 3 PM. During this event, Daisies, Brownies, Juniors, and Cadettes can meet the requirements for a wildlife-related badge through hands-on programs and activities led by naturalists and volunteers.

“We will be learning all about wonders of nature for this year’s Girl Scout Day,” said Vanessa Sivils, naturalist at Woodlands Nature Station. “Scouts can join a hike to learn about tree identification, meet live animals, create insect crafts, and much more.” The badges scouts will work towards are Design with Nature (Daisies), Bugs (Brownies), Animal Habitats (Juniors), and Trees (Cadettes).

A full schedule of events and details on the requirements covered can be seen here.

Everyone is invited to participate, including siblings and non-scouts. Nature Station staff recommends planning up to a three-hour visit to complete all the activities. All programming is included with Nature Station admission, which is $7 for ages 16+ and free for ages 15 and under.
