Media is an unavoidable part of life, but are you controlling it or is it controlling you?  Girls will use the collection of the Stabler-Leadbeater Apothecary Museum alongside modern advertising to examine types of media, persuasion techniques, and stereotypes.  Then, using their new media savvy, they’ll take action and create a Public Service Announcement to get the real message out about girls’ health and/or beauty.   By the end of the overnight, girls will have completed all of the steps for the It’s Your Story—Tell It: Media leadership journey for Cadette Girl Scouts. 

Fees: Girl: $30, Adult: $20
$3 per activity patch, $10 for souvenir t-shirts, $11 for patch and t-shirt combo (pre-order only)
