🌟💫 SHOWING UP ISN’T JUST SOMETHING GIRLS DO — IT’S SOMETHING THEY NOTICE, CHOOSE, ACT ON, AND MAKE THEIR OWN.
The Back to Troop Show Up Challenge is a 61-page, all-ages Girl Scout printable program designed to build confidence, teamwork, leadership, responsibility, and courage.
Through hands-on missions, badge challenges, service projects, outdoor activities, and personal-growth exercises, girls discover that showing up means more than simply being present—it means choosing to contribute and taking meaningful action.
The program follows five simple steps:
👀 Notice what is happening
🎯 Choose how to contribute
⚡ Act in a meaningful way
💫 Recognize the impact
⭐ Share and reflect
🏕️ Seven Hands-On Activities
- Show Up for Your Troop: Complete a secret mission to help or encourage the troop.
- Show Up for School: Choose ways to help, include, create, and lead at school.
- Show Up for Badges: Practice a badge skill and teach it to someone else.
- Show Up for Service: Identify a need and plan a meaningful service project.
- Show Up for the Trails: Practice outdoor skills, stewardship, and Leave No Trace.
- Show Up for Growth: Try a new skill, adjust, and practice progress over perfection.
- Show Up for Yourself: Build confidence through strengths, healthy self-talk, and a personal courage challenge.
Girls can also complete the Show Up Bingo Challenge, participate in a Reflection Circle, and celebrate their accomplishments during a special Recognition Ceremony.
