The meeting link will be sent to participants by 6pm the day before the workshop. Materials needed will also be included, but for the Coding for Good workshops, most of what they will need is their computer/device (depending on the workshop) and paper and pencil. -

I accidentally set my daughter up for both the outdoor art class and unicorn class on the same day/time I don’t know how I didn’t realize this, is there a way to move one if there is more class options? (Online Girl Scouts: Outdoor Art) -

Hi, It looks like there is still time to register but I'm not sure I would receive the kit by Sunday. Can you let me know the contents of the kit so that I can have the materials ready for my daughter on 2/14. (Online Girl Scouts: Valentine's Mad Science) -

Thanks for your interest in our workshop. The kit includes a petri dish, pipet, graduated cup, skittles, cornstarch, heart beads, spoon, cookie cutter and patch. Not sure you will be able to get all of those things. A better option would be for you to register for the on-demand Valentine's Mad Science workshop - that way you can watch the video whenever the kit arrives.

My girls are enrolled in the upcoming First Aid Class on 7/19. And we wanted to get some clarification on what is in or required to purchase for the First Aid Workshop Kit. One of my other GS moms enrolled her daughter in the Brownie First Aid class and since the link was not sent until the night before was caught off guard that certain supplies like a first aid kit etc. were needed for the class. I have looked every where for the supply list within the class registration and can't locate it. I just want to make sure the girls are prepared. Please advise. Thank you in advance. E.

Thanks for your question. We send the link the day before the workshop because we have had problems with parents forwarding the meeting link to people that are not registered. Sending the link close to the workshop date has minimized this problem. There is no kit for the First Aid Girl Scout Workshop on July 19th. The Brownie badge requires a first aid kit to be put together, and we supplied the materials for that requirement. I am sorry your friend did not see the details in the workshop description or the shipping prompt during registration. The only thing your girls will need is a pencil and paper, and they will be challenged to search the room they are in to find something they can use as a splint, but that is meant to be last-minute to simulate an emergency situation. Hope that helps. -
