The culmination of my Girl Scouting experience was earning the Gold Award and becoming the first Senior Girl Scout apprentice trainer in the council. I love every minute of Girl Scouts and am now sharing it as a leader of a brownie troop!

OUR MISSION
"Girl Scouting builds girls of courage, confidence and character, who make the world a better place."

THE GIRL SCOUT PROMISE
On my honor, I will try:
  To serve God and my country,
To help people at all times,
And to live by the Girl Scout Law.

THE GIRL SCOUT LAW
I will do my best to be
 honest and fair,
friendly and helpful,
considerate and caring,
courageous and strong, and
responsible for what I say and do,
and to
   respect myself and others,
respect authority,
use resources wisely,
make the world a better place,
and be a sister to every Girl Scout.
