(Jefferson County, Ind.) – Girls Inc. of Jefferson County is challenging girls to work on becoming, stronger, smarter, and bolder this summer.

Each week Girls Inc. will be posting weekly activities that girls can do at home throughout the end of July.

Once the activity is completed, an adult can post a picture or tell Girls Inc. how the activity went in the comment section of the activity post on Facebook.

At the end of each week, one winner will be selected and will receive a free snack. Then, at the end of summer, each completed activity is a chance to win a backpack filled with school supplies, fun activities, and treats.

Even if you aren’t at the center this summer you can still participate.
