Green Tie Guys have begun stepping up for girls in our community
Date: Sun Feb 18, 9:30 AM EST - Sun Feb 18, 1:00 PM EST
Have you ever considered living or working on a ranch one day? Join us at Camp for a day of Ranch Handing to see what it’s like!
Maintenance of our equestrian area and trails is essential to keeping our equine friends safe and healthy! You’ll learn how to do that and get hands-on practice with skills that are a must for any rancher.
Bring your positive attitude and a strong constitution. Ranch work can be hard, but you’ll feel super rewarded when you get to tell one of the horses everything you did for them during a meet and greet!
This is a service day to Camp Meriwether. Programming will be included for helpers to learn about the importance of the projects you will do at camp and how it will benefit the horses.
**All helpers get an Honorary Ranch Hand patch and lunch for all their hard work!**
**Must be a member of Girl Scouts of Greater Atlanta to participate**
