Building Tomorrow’s Leaders – Today<br />
<strong>Girl</strong> <strong>Scouts</strong> <strong>of</strong> NE <strong>Kansas</strong> & NW Missouri<br />
At <strong>Girl</strong> <strong>Scouts</strong> <strong>of</strong> NE <strong>Kansas</strong> & NW Missouri we are<br />
committed to moving at the speed <strong>of</strong> today's girls with<br />
innovative programming, impactful community service<br />
projects <strong>and</strong> incredible leadership experiences. We are<br />
dedicated to bringing the <strong>Girl</strong> Scout Leadership<br />
Experience to every girl in our 47 counties from rural<br />
communities to urban neighborhoods. We thank you, our<br />
donors, for making this possible. As girls discover more<br />
about themselves <strong>and</strong> the world around them, connect<br />
with their peers <strong>and</strong> take action to make the world a<br />
better place, they transform into leaders <strong>of</strong> tomorrow.<br />
Being a part <strong>of</strong> that is a just a phenomenal opportunity that we don't want any girl to miss out.<br />
A <strong>Girl</strong> Scout's journey is made possible with support from committed parents <strong>and</strong> adult volunteers.<br />
<strong>Girl</strong> Scouting develops qualities that will last a lifetime including strong values, social consciousness<br />
<strong>and</strong> convictions about their own potential <strong>and</strong> self-worth. As a result, girls develop the skills needed<br />
to help them avoid unhealthy behaviors, make responsible decisions <strong>and</strong> overcome challenges<br />
throughout their lives.<br />
As we celebrate our 100th Anniversary <strong>and</strong> embark on a new century in <strong>Girl</strong> Scouting, we hope you will<br />
help girls imagine the possibilities. This will be the century when a girl discovers a cure for a disease<br />
because her passion was sparked during a <strong>Girl</strong> Scout STEM (science, technology, engineering <strong>and</strong><br />
math) program, more women will become Fortune 500 CEOS because <strong>of</strong> the business skills learned<br />
during the <strong>Girl</strong> Scout Cookie Program <strong>and</strong> new ways <strong>of</strong> protecting the environment will be created<br />
because <strong>of</strong> the impact <strong>of</strong> summer camp. Just imagine the future with <strong>Girl</strong> <strong>Scouts</strong> taking the lead.<br />
We hope you will join with us for an exciting year in <strong>Girl</strong> Scouting as we honor our past <strong>and</strong> look toward<br />
our future. We appreciate your past support <strong>and</strong> hope you will continue to be a part <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Girl</strong> Scout<br />
journey.<br />
Yours in <strong>Girl</strong> Scouting,<br />

<strong>Girl</strong> <strong>Scouts</strong> Discover New Skills in the<br />
Outdoors<br />
<strong>Girl</strong> <strong>Scouts</strong> Discover the World <strong>of</strong> STEM<br />
Did you know that only 12% <strong>of</strong> engineers are female?<br />
Through the <strong>Girl</strong> Scout science, technology, engineering <strong>and</strong> math (STEM) programs we<br />
are trying to change these statistics. Using fun, h<strong>and</strong>s-on programs, girls can make a<br />
robot dance, go on a digital scavenger hunt or make a battery out <strong>of</strong> a lemon.<br />
More than 3/4 <strong>of</strong> our <strong>Girl</strong> <strong>Scouts</strong> experienced at least<br />
one outdoor adventure this year.<br />
From camping with her troop to kayaking at resident camp,<br />
there is something for every girl. Through outdoor programming,<br />
girls discover new skills including problem solving, teamwork <strong>and</strong><br />
building self-esteem.<br />
During one <strong>of</strong> our weekend ziplining sessions,<br />
Isabelle tentatively began the long climb up the rope<br />
ladder to the top <strong>of</strong> the zipline platform. With h<strong>and</strong>s<br />
shaking <strong>and</strong> a quick look down, she yelled out to the adult<br />
volunteer that she didn't want to go any further. The volunteer<br />
provided soothing words <strong>of</strong>; “it's OK, ziplining is totally your choice <strong>and</strong><br />
you don't have to do this today.” Isabelle slowly climbed back down <strong>and</strong> with<br />
tears in her eyes removed her helmet <strong>and</strong> harness. As she watched her friends one<br />
by one leave the platform with squeals <strong>of</strong> delight, her courage began to build. She had<br />
set out to zipline, <strong>and</strong> she wanted to meet the challenge despite her fear. As she soared<br />
through the air, she yelled out, “Yes, I did it”!<br />
It's Her <strong>Girl</strong> Scout Journey!<br />
At the Inventure University Engineering <strong>and</strong> Technology Camp,<br />
Lauren discovered her love for engineering.<br />
In one week, she designed her own website, made <strong>and</strong><br />
launched a rocket <strong>and</strong> worked with female<br />
engineering students. The experience changed<br />
Lauren’s attitude from believing that<br />
engineering was just for boys to girls can be<br />
successful as well. At the end <strong>of</strong> the<br />
camp, she told her counselor, “I am<br />
soooo going to be an engineer”!<br />

Journey!

<strong>Girl</strong> Scout Leadership Experience Year-End Highlights<br />
<strong>Girl</strong> <strong>Scouts</strong> Connect to Run the World's Largest All-<strong>Girl</strong> Business<br />
More than 26,000 <strong>Girl</strong> <strong>Scouts</strong> participated in this year's Cookie Program<br />
selling more than 2.5 million boxes <strong>of</strong> cookies. Of course we all love the<br />
sweet decadence <strong>of</strong> a Thin Mint, but do you know what that cookie<br />
represents? Through the Cookie Program, girls learn business skills like<br />
goal setting, marketing <strong>and</strong> financial literacy. They connect with each<br />
other to run their business <strong>and</strong> then use some <strong>of</strong> their proceeds to help<br />
their communities with service projects.<br />
This year, girls averaged 96 boxes each <strong>and</strong> realized a 7% increase over<br />
the previous year.<br />
Hundreds <strong>of</strong> booth sales occur throughout the cookie<br />
season. <strong>Girl</strong>s are challenged to created marketing<br />
materials, know facts about the product they are<br />
selling <strong>and</strong> interact with customers. Just imagine<br />
that in the future a girl that asked you to buy a<br />
box <strong>of</strong> Thin Mints could be leading a<br />
Fortune 500 Company.<br />

<strong>Girl</strong> <strong>Scouts</strong> Take Action to Change<br />
the World<br />
The <strong>Girl</strong> Scout Gold <strong>and</strong> Silver Awards provide girls an<br />
opportunity to take the lead <strong>and</strong> address a community need<br />
by implementing <strong>and</strong> planning a project. In March, we<br />
recognized 66 Gold <strong>and</strong> 180 Silver Award recipients.<br />
<strong>Girl</strong>s earning the Gold Award spend at least 65 hours completing their<br />
projects. This year's projects ranged from environmental clean-up to a community<br />
demonstration showing the impact <strong>of</strong> teen drinking <strong>and</strong> driving.<br />
Lindsay's project pulled her entire community together with support from the local emergency<br />
response teams, hospital <strong>and</strong> even Life Star <strong>of</strong> Topeka, an<br />
emergency helicopter service to reenact a teen drunk driving<br />
accident. With high school graduation <strong>and</strong> parties around the<br />
corner, Lindsay knew her project would have an incredible<br />
impact on her fellow students. She kept the details <strong>of</strong> her<br />
project confidential, so that the powerful, visual display truly<br />
demonstrated how in just a few minutes lives could be<br />
changed forever.<br />
