Astronomy Special Interest Group

This group is for girls who want to have fun, learn, and lead! Girls plan their activities for the year and organize events that younger Girl Scouts attend. The group also takes trips to discover the world around them - and beyond! This great group helps girls develop leadership skills and learn about themselves while becoming more acquainted with science and the field of astronomy.

This group functions only with adult volunteer support! If you have an interest in astronomy or just want to lend your Girl Scout skills, you'll be appreciated!

Meetings are on the first Sunday of every month from 2pm to 3:45pm at Program Place, Central Houston. This time may be subject to change for scheduling purposes.

Note: This program is for Girl Scouts who will at least be in 6th grade Fall 2026.
