Facilities

Girl Scouts of Southern Nevada operates a wide variety of Girl Scout facilities. The operation of Girl Scout sites and facilities is conducted under the safety and management guidelines of GSUSA as outlined in Safety Management of Girl Scout Sites and Facilities. These guidelines provide the conditions for protecting and maintaining the health, safety, and security of girls and volunteers who are taking part in activities at these sites.

Improvements and maintenance of these facilities is funded by the council operational and capital budgets. There is a volunteer committee that is tasked with reviewing all council sites and making recommendations for on-going maintenance, as well as long-range development of the sites.

Funding for projects identified in the long range development plan comes from budget allocations, grants, community donations, in-kind services, Girl Scout Silver & Gold Award projects and Boy Scout Eagle projects. In addition to capital investments, there is on-going maintenance on all council properties that includes landscaping, regular service to HVAC units, plumbing repairs, exterminating services, and other miscellaneous repairs.
