Great Journey resources

shopspaz.com/blog/2016/02/27/so-many-journey-resources/

Here is a list of resources to assist leaders and girls in completing their journeys. So many of these resources are laid out so journeys can be completed in a day or a weekend and many encompass a few meetings or more. Most of these will have to be tailored to fit your troop and some of them would make a great plan for a service unit or council to put on a �??Journey in a Day�?? or �??Journey in a Weekend�?? event.
