Girls Scouts Love State Parks

Washington State Parks will participate in the annual Girl Scouts Love State Parks program on Sept. 12-14, 2025. Girl Scouts Love State Parks is a partnership between Girl Scouts USA and the National Association of State Parks Directors. State parks in all 50 states participate.

Several state parks will offer activities during Girl Scouts Love State Parks weekend. Interpretive rangers will host scavenger hunts, arts and crafts for kids of all ages and the opportunity for kids to get their Girl Scouts Love State Parks Passport stamped. Passports are available to Scouts and to the general public.

All events are exclusively open to Girl Scouts. A Discover Pass is required for parking at a state park.
