From community service projects to summer camp, travel opportunities to career exploration, Girl Scouts participate in enriching, skill-building activities that give them the tools and opportunities to become exactly who they want to be. Through experiences that build confidence, creativity and important life skills, today's Girl Scouts develop real world leadership abilities. This exceptional program gives girls the chance to: Discover themselves and the world around them... Connect with others through caring relationships and critical team-building skills, and... Take Action to make the world a better place by becoming advocates for themselves and their communities Many girls join a local troop where they build character, gain self-esteem and serve their communities while creating lifelong friendships. Others who prefer not to join a troop can become independent members and enjoy all Girl Scout activities including programs, cookie sales, events and so much more! No matter what, you can get started in Girl Scouting right away as soon as you register!		Who can be a Girl Scout? EVERY GIRL EVERYWHERE AND ADULTS OF ALL AGES!
