Girl Scouts Opens First East Coast DreamLab in NJ 

The Girl Scouts of Central and Southern New Jersey (GSCSNJ) have unveiled the Girl Scout DreamLab in North Brunswick, NJ, a space designed to empower girls through creativity and collaboration. GSCSNJ is the first council on the East Coast and the third in the nation to introduce this innovative initiative.  

Governor Phil Murphy declared September 13, 2023, as Girl Scout Dream Day in honor of this milestone. The DreamLab is a facility offering girls opportunities for exploration in STEM projects, podcasting, performances, bouldering, and more. It’s envisioned as a versatile hub for badge work, troop meetings, and award projects. 

“We want this space to be versatile, serving as a hub for everything from working on badges and journeys to hosting troop meetings and assisting with Gold or Silver Award projects,” said Ginny Hill, CEO of GSCSNJ.  Girl Scout troops and partners can use the DreamLab for activities, badge workshops, and community projects starting in October.
