We understand that today's College Student has many challenges -- changing course loads, tight finances, often times without a car or easy transportation, OH -- AND!! a pandemic! As Mentors, we'd like to help provide transportation, communication, and invitations to fun things Girl Scouts are doing around town, so that College Students are supported in the ways they need it most.
Girl Scouts ages 18-29 provide younger Girl Scouts an excellent role model, are closer to remembering what it is like to be that age, and know what it's like to be a young person today. Truthfully, these Young Adult Leaders are inspiring just by being themselves! Visit our Campus Girl Scouts page for more information.
Calling Cadettes, Seniors and Ambassadors who want more fun events for older girls in our area! Join a group of likeminded Girl Scouts and adults to bring teens together at a variety of events, programs, badge work, and Higher Award support meetings. Have a say in what these opportunities include by joining the Teen Leadership Team … you will get to come up with a fun name for the group! Meeting dates TBD.
