We believe that all girls deserve the opportunity to develop into tomorrow’s leaders. When girls participate in Girl Scouts they benefit in 5 important ways:
- They develop a strong sense of self.
- They display positive values.
- They seek challenges and learn from setbacks.
- They form and maintain healthy relationships.
- They learn to identify and solve problems in their community.
Girls participating will receive:
- Troop Leadership from the Community Troop Specialist/Volunteer
- 1-2 meetings per month during the school year
- Troop will be meeting 6-8 months per year
- Membership with Girl Scouts of the USA
- 1-4 Girl Scout
Experiences per year (possible options include: Fresh
Air Day at local camp, Girl Scout University Day, National Civil Rights Museum, Stax Museum, Girl Scout Program Center, etc.) - Program supplies
- Snacks
- Each girl earns up to 5 skill-building badges, patches or pins
- Parent and guardian communication through email, handouts, parent meetings and publications
- Troop participation in Product Programs
- Girl Scout Cookie Program (Dec-March)
Access to all programs offered by Girl Scouts Heart of the South; program information is covered in the Heartstrings newsletter and Camp Guide.
