Membership
Today, Girl Scouts is revitalizing the ways the serve girls to enable the largest number of girls and volunteers to participate. To achieve this goal, we are making three key changes:
1. We are updating activity options into shorter cycles.
2. We are offering more flexible time commitments for volunteers.
3. We are ensuring that Girl Scouting is a very full and consistent experience for girls and adults nationwide.
Girl Scouts is one of many options for today’s girls. The good news is that Girl Scouting offers activities that incorporate and enhance girls’ favorite activities, hobbies, sports, and interests while providing a unique personal growth and leadership development experience.
Property Management
When our councils realign, we will be in a better position to modernize properties and to offer even stronger outdoor education experiences to meet the needs of today’s girls. While the details will emerge over several years, we will continue our rich tradition of providing unmatched opportunities for girls to learn respect for, and fully enjoy, the environment.
Girl Scout Cookie Sale Program
We are retooling so that all Girl Scout activities, including the Cookie Program, can offer the highest quality experience for girls, and be managed efficiently. Our community will continue to enjoy America’s favorite cookies, while contributing to the development of tomorrow’s leaders.
The Cookie Program is the nation’s premier Business and Economic Literacy Program. By participating , girls develop skills they will use their entire lives. Among the many benefits are ethical decision making, presentation skills, learning to work on a team and money management.
All proceeds from the Cookie Program will continue to stay within the local area. Proceeds directly benefit girls and their troops and indirectly subsidize the cost of providing the Girl Scout Program.
Throughout the years, our friends and neighbors have exhibited their belief in the Girl Scout Movement by consistently supporting the Girl Scout Cookie Program. We are very grateful for this support and expect it to continue.
Watch for more information about the realignment in our future publications.
