Northern Kentucky Leadership Campus Campaign
For nearly 110 years, the Girl Scout Leadership Experience has provided girls with the setting for life-changing lessons that build confidence and critical thinking skills. Girls can unplug, learn important skills, try something new, and connect with peers in a safe and supportive environment.
Girl Scouts of Kentucky's Wilderness Road has planned a state-of-the-art Leadership Campus that will transform the Girl Scout experience throughout our 67-county service region. The development of this 11-acre property in Northern Kentucky will create a flagship facility equipped with facilities for day programs, overnight camping cabins and tent space, and multi-purpose quarters for programming, training, and enhanced technology for STEM activities. Outdoor amenities include a lakeside dock with boat house, archery range, sports court, and amphitheater.
We are incredibly grateful for the donors who have already given generously to this initiative.
We invite you to be a part of creating the Northern Kentucky Leadership Campus by giving today. Together we can inspire the next generation of girls to lead with courage, confidence, and character. We look forward to your leadership and support. Get on the list! Check out our Campaign Supporters below!

The modern amenities and technological advancements offered by the Entrepreneurship Center will also facilitate our cookie entrepreneurs to work as a team to accomplish common goals and solve problems, while building the confidence they need to excel as future leaders.
- Retail Center: Our badge program incentivizes girls to overcome obstacles and learn essential life skills that prepare girls with critical thinking and problem-solving skills, teamwork and collaboration, and adaptability and leadership.

More about Our Leadership Campus
Girl Scouts of Kentucky’s Wilderness Road has a great and growing need to develop facilities necessary to serve every girl. With population growth projections expected to be significantly higher in Northern Kentucky than in much of the state, GSKWR seeks to develop a flagship property - a Leadership Campus - in Erlanger for girls to enjoy the ultimate 21st Century Girl Scout Leadership Experience.
GSKWR seeks to raise $6 million to develop its picturesque 11-acre property in Erlanger into its most modern and sophisticated facility to create a wealth of new opportunities for generations to come.
Phase 1: Leadership Center
The Leadership Campus will be developed in three phases. This initial phase seeks to raise $2 million and focuses on the Leadership Center - a 5,528 square foot building that will include a command center, retail space, and an entrepreneurship center for expanded programming, day camps, and staff/volunteer training. The Leadership Center will provide countless opportunities to further the core values of Girl Scouts by way of Entrepreneurship, Life Skills, and STEM initiatives.
