sponsor the "Discover Historic Richmond" Patch Series

Richmond, VA is host to many defining moments in our nation's history, and we have a wide variety of architectural styles that tell our story. HRF invite s the Girl Scouts to learn about these valuable, beautiful historic structures and HRF's efforts to preserve them. HRF has prepared 4 different self-guided scavenger hunts of historic areas in Richmond that, once completed, will earn points towards the"Discover Historic Richmond" patch.

Each scavenger hunt comes with a packet of information that includes a map of the historic area, detailed chart of various architectural styles, HRF's Guide to Historic Richmond, and the scavenger hunt test sheet to fill out and return to HRF to earn the patch. Girls must complete TWO of the four scavenger hunts to earn the patch.

Scavenger hunts include the following historic areas. To download the entire scavenger hunt packet, please click on the corresponding document.
