Girl Scouting is all about providing opportunities for girls to develop leadership, learn about the world around them, start a lifetime of service to their community, and have fun with girls who share those values. Exploring themes from a variety of experiences and approaches as the badgework requires makes the girls understand that a single approach or though isn't all there is to know. Our troop of sixteen 6th graders are better school citizens and community citizens because of their Girl Scout experience!

I grew up in Girl Scouts with caring leaders who sacrificed to help a group of girls discover their strengths and interests. When my own daughter was old enough to join she was so excited! I became a troop leader and then stayed on as a service unit volunteer for the past 17 years I have been involved with this council. I stay because I truly believe Girl Scouts has a lot to offer for every girl and every volunteer benefits from the experience. What better way to spend time with your daughter than camping, crafting and exploring and discovering new and different aspects of the world around you? Even if you don't have a daughter involved find a way to participate. We need volunteers so every girl can experience the wonder world of Girl Scouting!

I joined Girl Scouts 48 years ago at the age of 7. I have been involved with this council for over 30 years. Girl Scouts provided opportunity for leadership, teamwork, self direction, and confidence which directly led to my career choice as an attorney. Continued involvement as an adult volunteer allows me to give back and inspire additional generations of bright, eager girls. Girl Scouts is the greatest organization for girls in the world.
