✨ Investigate, Decode, and Triumph in The Great City Heist… Mystery Case!
Leaders, are you ready to turn your Scouts into clever detectives on a fast-paced mission across the city? The Great City Heist… Mystery Case transforms your troop into junior investigators as they crack riddles, analyze evidence, follow trails, and outsmart the thief who struck City Hall. Through playful mysteries and puzzle-filled adventures, girls will discover teamwork, clever thinking, and the thrill of solving a case together.
In this immersive program, Scouts step into the role of detectives with a Case File in hand. They’ll hunt for clues at the crime scene, chase pawprint evidence, line up witnesses, and even examine tricky surveillance photos. Each solved challenge earns an “Evidence Token” that gets filed away—bringing them one step closer to cracking the case. From riddles to scrambled codes, logic puzzles to spot-the-difference sleuthing, detectives will sharpen their observation, problem-solving, and teamwork skills in a fun, city-wide mystery.
Whether run at a troop meeting, a camp day, or a bigger service unit event, The Great City Heist… Mystery Case blends story, puzzles, and reflection into a thrilling experience that makes every girl feel like a true detective—sharp-eyed, brave, and unstoppable.
