Troop Travel toggle arrow

Troop travel

Grab your Girl Scout friends and get planning! Troop travel is a great way to explore your local community and beyond. Excited to plan an overnight at one of our council properties? Interested in visiting a museum or cheering at a soccer game? Anything you can dream, you can do—together.

Volunteers, make sure you check out our NEW Travel Progression Chart (updated January 2025) to learn more about supporting your troop as they plan their trips!

Council-Sponsored Trips toggle arrow

Council-sponsored trips

Occasionally, Girl Scouts of Oregon and Southwest Washington will plan trips led by council staff and travel team volunteers. There is an application process for some trips, while others are open to any Girl Scout who wishes to register. Girls travel in groups but not necessarily with troop members. The locations of these trips vary (local to international); travel costs vary accordingly. Search our Activities to find upcoming trips.

Travel Patrols toggle arrow

Travel Patrols

Travel Patrols are a group of youth members supported by adults working towards travel to a specific location decided on by the group. These groups are an excellent way for individuals to engage with a group of like-minded girls while still maintaining their troop membership or supplementing their Juliette experience.

Council-Sponsored Travel Patrols

Travel Patrols can be sponsored by Girl Scouts of Oregon and Southwest Washington and are designed to function like a troop for the duration of the trip, including the planning stages. Girl Scouts who sign up for a trip are involved in planning the trip with the other youth in the travel patrol. This means you can get to know the other Girl Scouts you’ll be traveling with before packing your bags!

Member-Sponsored Travel Patrols

Any Girl Scout Juliette, troop, or volunteer wishing to pursue travel goals can consider participating in or forming a travel patrol. A patrol could be open to members within a specific service unit, or they can be open to members across the council and plan virtually. If a group that meets your girl’s interests doesn’t exist, we can help you form one! To learn more about how these groups work and come to be, check out the video below and the Girl Scout Patrols and Clubs FAQ.

For help finding out if there are any open patrols or clubs near you or support in starting one of your own, please email answers@girlscoutsosw.org or connect with your local service unit team.
