Strong values, leadership, and life skills … Get it all and more through Girl Scouts!
Girl Scouting offers girls unique opportunities to give back to their communities, try new activities, and feel proud of their accomplishments. In the process, girls build confidence, self-respect, and self-worth—character qualities that last a lifetime.
Join Girl Scouts today! Make a difference as a girl member or as an adult volunteer. For more information, download a copy of the Girl Scout brochure or the Family Guide to Girl Scouting. Contact a membership specialist by calling 651-227-8835 or 800-845-0787. |
