Summer's calling and adventure awaits right in our own backyard. Girl Scouts will hit the road locally to uncover the hidden gems of their town. From local businesses to meaningful community landmarks, girls will explore what makes their area unique while learning more about the people and places that shape it.

Along the way, they will build confidence, curiosity, and community connection while making new friends and creating unforgettable summer memories. Get ready to see your town through a whole new lens.

 

What to Expect on Day 1:

Girls will arrive at the Dignity Health Convention Center and be welcomed by the team, who will introduce them to the various spaces, tools, and roles that bring events to life. They will participate in a guided tour led by experienced staff, exploring different areas of the venue while learning how large-scale events are managed from start to finish. 

During the visit, staff will share insight into their daily tasks, explaining what it takes to coordinate events, manage teams, and maintain a seamless experience for guests. Through observation, interaction, and real-world examples, girls will gain a deeper understanding of how these roles come together behind the scenes. This experience will open their eyes to new career possibilities, leaving them feeling inspired, empowered, and excited about future opportunities.

 

Throughout the program, girls will: 

  • Tour the Dignity Health Convention Center and explore how a largescale event venue operates
  • Learn about careers in event management, hospitality, and facility operations through interaction with staff
  • Discover how events are planned and executed, and how teams work together to create a seamless guest experience
