FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Girl Scout QuestFest® 2022: Join us July 14th-17th, 2022 in Savannah, GA or Virtually!
The annual event of the summer for Girl Scouts returns to Savannah, plus celebrate Girl Scouts' 110th birthday where it all started
SAVANNAH, GA - Calling all Girl Scouts, Alums and Girl Guides from around the world! Girl Scout QuestFest® is back for its 6th year of questing and festing from July 14-17, 2022. After two years of virtual QuestFest® in 2020 and 2021, QuestFest® returns in-person to Savannah!
2022 marks QuestFest's first year offering both in-person AND virtual participation via the "Play-from-Anywhere" QuestFest experience ticket. It allows participants to bring the magic of QuestFest to wherever they are in the world during QuestFest weekend via the QuestFest app on their smartphone and desktop. Plus, this year's QuestFest will be an epic celebration as the birthplace of Girl Scouts celebrates Girl Scouts' 110th Birthday!

Hosted by Girl Scouts of Historic Georgia, QuestFest® is a giant scavenger hunt with a twist! You're not looking for items or things -- instead you and your team are in the search of experiences called Quests. These Quests are designed with Girl Scout values in mind, so while you're having fun, you'll also be making the world a better place. And…all of the quests are kept TOP SECRET until the event kick-off at the opening ceremony. Event participants (called "QuestFesters") can join a competitive or non-competitive team with the competitive teams vying for cash prizes.
After a full day of Questing, the Festing continues Saturday night when the QuestFest winners will receive their prizes at the 'Big Reveal' Closing Ceremony, featuring a not-to-be-missed concert by pop singer/songwriter and Girl Scout Lifetime Member Kristina Lachaga, "The Girl With The Big Pink Heart™."

Lachaga will headline the in-person concert (which will also feature a livestream broadcast for virtual participants). Lachaga will also host a variety of events throughout QuestFest weekend, including her QuestFest Slumber Party for virtual participants and her signature QuestFest Team - Team #Heartbreaker - that Girl Scouts & Girl Guides can join to Quest & Fest with "The Girl With The Big Pink Heart™" herself.
2022 will mark Lachaga's 5th year performing for QuestFest, joining the event as their Concert Headliner in 2018 and continuing her annual performances during the pandemic, livestreaming the concert from performance venues in New Jersey.

Lachaga serves as a role model in the Girl Scout and Girl Guide sisterhood that the girls aspire to emulate. This champion for girls empowers them through her #FollowYourHeartsDream™ message both on and off the stage.
Lachaga is thrilled to be able to bring her energetic & girl-powered stage performance back to Savannah.
