Girl Scouts…Are You Ready to Start Your Journey?


Join our troop as we travel to
Savannah, GA in July 2014
Visit to the Birthplace of our Founder, Juliette Gordon Low

I have planned/organized a trip to Savannah, GA  
July 17th-21, 2014

The Tour Includes: Roundtrip Transportation via Amtrak to and from Philadelphia; four nights hotel accommodations (breakfast is included with hotel stay); a day at the Birthplace of Juliette Gordon Low (founder of Girl Scouts); a pool and pizza party; a day on Tybee Island, including a dolphin tour and visit to the Tybee Lighthouse; tour of the historic Pirate House, includes lunch; Savannah Fun Tours Scavenger Hunt; Old Savannah Tours Historic Trolley Tour; tour of the First African Baptist Church (a stop on the underground railroad and the oldest dinner at local favorites; Personalized Girl Scout travel booklet to enhance learning; and all taxes are included. Personal tour of the city, to include famous monuments, museums and attractions!

The girls will earn several badges including the Juliette Gordon Low Birthplace patch and pin, coastal Georgia badge, dolphin tour fun patch, and many others. A tentative itinerary is included. Currently, I have reserved 25 seats on Amtrak and the cost breakdown is as follows:

$426.00 per scout (not including any offset from the cookie sale)
$523.00 per adult
$493.00 per senior (persons 62+)

The cost breakdown is based on five persons in a room, train ticket prices, visit to the Juliette Gordon Low Birthplace, patches, t-shirts, pins, and estimated cost of meals.
The goal is to offset the cost of the trip for each scout up to $100.00, based on cookie sales.
**Additional seats can be reserved based on interest and deposits received.
