THOR commits
to sponsoring Girl Scouts Love State Parks weekend focused on
inclusivity in the outdoors and stewardship of public lands for 3
additional years
ELKHART,
Ind., Aug. 24, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Underscoring
its continued commitment to promoting inclusivity in the
outdoors, THOR Industries,
Inc. (NYSE: THO) extended its partnership with Girl Scouts of
the USA (GSUSA), the largest
girl-led organization in the world, through 2025.
In the multi-year partnership, THOR sponsors GSUSA's largest and most popular
outdoor event, Girl Scouts Love State Parks. The annual event is
hosted in nearly 500 state parks across all 50 states and Puerto
Rico. The 2023 event, occurring September 9 and 10, will focus on park
stewardship.
Once again, Girl Scouts will incorporate THOR's sustainability program, Pick Up
America, into its park stewardship efforts. Any of the nearly
75,000 Girl Scouts and families expected to participate may pledge
to remove bags of trash from public lands through a
custom-designed, co-branded Pick Up America website. Since the
founding of the partnership, Girl Scouts have pledged to remove
more than 22 tons of trash from public lands- contributing to more
than 290 tons of trash pledged to be removed from public lands
since the Pick Up America program launched in 2019.
"Girl Scouts Love State Parks is a great opportunity to connect
people with nature and families with each other while promoting
stewardship in state parks across the US," shared Bob Martin, President and CEO of THOR Industries. "We are proud to extend our
partnership with Girl Scouts and support their continued success in
providing girls with outdoor experiences which build confident,
courageous leaders."
The video, "Stronger Together" explores Girl Scouts Love State
Parks weekend and highlights the organizations' shared commitment
to environmental stewardship and outdoor equity.

We Are Girl Scouts of the USA
Girl Scouts bring their dreams to life and work together to build a
better world. Through programs from coast to coast, Girl Scouts of
all backgrounds and abilities can be unapologetically themselves as
they discover their strengths and rise to meet new
challenges—whether they want to climb to the top of a tree or the
top of their class, lace up their boots for a hike or advocate for
climate justice, or make their first best friends. Backed by
trusted adult volunteers, mentors, and millions of alums, Girl
Scouts lead the way as they find their voices and make changes that
affect the issues most important to them. To join us, volunteer,
reconnect, or donate, visit girlscouts.org.
