Girl Scouts of America
Sponsor: Mrs. Oty Ramos
Girl Scouts of the United States of America (GSUSA), commonly referred to as simply Girl Scouts, is a youth organization for girls in the United States and American girls living abroad.[2] Founded by Juliette Gordon Low in 1912, it was organized after Low met Robert Baden-Powell, the founder of Scouting, in 1911.[3]
The stated mission of the Girl Scouts is to "[build] girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place"[4] through activities involving camping, community service, and practical skills such as first aid. Members can earn badges by completing certain tasks and mastering skills. More senior members may be eligible for awards, such as the Girl Scout Gold, Silver, and Bronze Awards.[5] Membership is organized according to grade, with activities designed for each level.
Every Girl Scout has their own curiosity, dreams, and talents—so when they come together to decide which of the thousands of Girl Scout activities to try, the sky’s the limit. Whether visiting an animal shelter, camping, hosting a dance-off, or filming a movie—they’re learning to take risks, trust their gut, and team up with others for good.
We meet bi monthly and have 1 to 3 outside events every month.
