Vintage Camping Equipment on Display

A group of women in vintage clothing stands in a line outdoors, balancing on one leg with their arms linked, smiling and posing together for the camera. Trees and sunlight are visible in the background.

There’s still time to see the latest exhibit from the GSCNC Archives and History Committee.

“Girl Scouts: Camping Is Our Bag” showcases  vintage camping equipment.

Whether you’re shopping for a new uniform or taking a training class, next time you are at the GSCNC main office at 4301 Connecticut Ave., NW in Washington, check out the displays in the lobby!
