Cadettes can register for camp between now and March 3.
MULTIPLE LEVELS

PARENTS
- Pay your Girl Scout’s troop dues: $45 for Daisies, $60 for all other levels. If needed, dues can be paid in installments. Dues pay for badges and pins, help supplement some activities/trips, and also help support the troop web site, and other troop expenses. (Parents pay for fun patches.) For financial assistance contact your Girl Scout’s troop leader.
Girl Scouts can spend a few days or a week this summer at Girl Scout sleep-away camp! Registered Girl Scouts have access to four fantastic sleep-away camps: Camp Coles Trip, Camp May Flather, Camp Potomac Woods and Camp Winona. Each camp is unique and offers a variety of activities like swimming, kayaking, making crafts, hiking, cooking over an open fire, and best of all, finding your best friend. At Girl Scout camp, all girls are treated with respect and encouraged to be their awesome selves! Registration is now open.
It’s cookies season! We’re excited once again to sell Girl Scout Cookies. For 100 years, Girl Scouts have sold cookies to finance some of their activities. Cookie entrepreneurs learn valuable skills that set them up for success in life, while earning money to fund activities like troop travel, camping, community service projects and more. If you have not already signed up to sell cookies, sign up with your Troop Cookie Mom at the next meeting. Also see your troop level Cookie Mom to sign your daughter up for booth sales.
