Girl Scouts to participate in Columbus architectural scavenger hunt

More than 100 Girl Scouts and their families will search downtown Columbus Saturday responding to clues in an architectural scavenger hunt.

Young girls from across central Indiana are competing in the Girl Scouts of Central Indiana’s first-ever Columbus Architecture Walk on a mission to earn a new architecture patch.

Kate Weidner, Girl Scouts of Central Indiana program development manager, partnered with the Becky Harper at the Columbus Visitors Center to create an activity that would help Scouts become familiar with Columbus’ iconic architecture.

“Architecture and design is one of those STEM activities that we want to provide for the girls,” Weidner said.
