Several years ago, when it became clear that our current Bakersfield Service Center was no longer serving our staff well, and even more so, wasn’t an inspiring or efficient space for our girls and volunteers, we immediately began envisioning something entirely new! When we initially approached our Board with this significant undertaking, they stood behind our vision for a cutting-edge, girl-centric space with full support. While the road to this new space hasn’t been brief or easy –the Girl Scouts Innovation Center in Bakersfield was well worth the wait.
This girl-first space features a Girls-Only Lounge, Podcast and Media Studio, large activity space, staff offices, and Gold Mine Store. With our eyes set on the bright future ahead, GSCCS has plans for a full Outdoor Training Center and STEM Lab at the Innovation Center campus.
We hope you will visit us soon and discover the Girl Scouts Innovation Center for yourself!
