Ready, aim, discover! In this high-energy outdoor adventure, Brownie and Junior Girl Scouts will become nature detectives and archery adventurers as they go on a Bug Hunt! Scouts will sharpen their aim as they shoot at hanging bug-themed targets, wear silly bug-eye glasses, and play a fast-paced matching game with real-world archery gear. Brownies will also explore what makes bugs special and why they matter-helping them earn steps toward their Bugs badge!  Whether you're brand-new to archery or already have a steady hand, this event is packed with fun, learning, and discovery.

Bug Hunt Adventures Include:
- Bullseye Bugs - Practice archery by aiming at colorful hanging insect targets like butterflies, dragonflies, and beetles.
- Bug-Eye Archery Challenge - Take your best shot while wearing silly bug-eye glasses to simulate how insects see!
- Insect Investigators - Learn about real bugs through a quick and interactive nature exploration-how they help the world, where they live, and why they're cool!

Badge Alignment:
Brownies - Bugs Badge: This event covers key parts of the badge, including learning about different types of bugs, observing them in nature, and understanding why they're important.
Juniors - Outdoor Fun & Archery Experience: Juniors will build their archery skills and connect with the outdoors through themed challenges.
