  • Girl Scout Night

    Girl Scout Night

    Girl Scouts, are you looking for a fun way to learn about the Wisconsin Humane Society, animals, and maybe even earn a badge along the way? We’ve got you covered!

    Girl Scouts K5 through grade 12 are invited to spend an evening at the Wisconsin Humane Society Milwaukee Campus. We are offering a fun, hybrid event that will provide troops with content to view ahead of the program along with an in-person, interactive program that engages Girl Scouts in the Wisconsin Humane Society’s mission.

    Attendees will interact with an animal, make a fun craft to help the animals at WHS, and learn about pets and how to be safe around them. Girl Scouts will be able to make progress toward a badge through the program, and troops will be provided with the badge requirement for their level so that Girl Scouts can complete their badge on their own time.

    Exclusive Wisconsin Humane Society patches are available to purchase for $2 each at the time of registration.

    We can accommodate a total of up to 40 Girl Scouts per time slot. Register early as dates fill quickly. Due to space limitations, we ask that each troop have no more than the Girl Scouts required number of chaperones listed below:
