Learn something new!
We officially opened our Girl Experience Center for regular programming in March of 2022! Since then, we've hosted countless programs, troop meetings, and parties - all thanks to our Girl Scouts!
This fun and interactive space hosts a variety of
programming opportunities throughout the year with many of the
programs having components of STEM education.
Girl Scouting has a history of offering STEM opportunities to girls dating to the earliest days of the organization and some program offerings will reflect that legacy, combining traditional Girl Scout activities with both period and contemporary scientific principles.
To learn about our current program opportunities, see below, or check out the Events in our Program Guide! And don't forget to check out our shop!
Build-A-Bear at the Savannah Girl Center
A fun and memorable way to celebrate achievements is now available at the Savannah Girl Center! The Build-A-Bear Boutique gives Girl Scouts the opportunity to create their very own furry friend and outfit them with official Girl Scout vests and accessories. Perfect for rewards, special celebrations, and troop experiences, the boutique offers a hands-on activity girls will love. Stay tuned for upcoming programs and party opportunities designed to make each visit even more special.

IMPORTANT: Troops are responsible for registering the proper number of adults to participate in programming to maintain the proper girl/adult ratio for their group!
