Hey <strong>Girl</strong>s!<br />
Hello Leaders and<br />
Parents<br />
We hope you are excited by all <strong>the</strong><br />
opportunities and experiences offered for girls<br />
this year by <strong>Girl</strong> <strong>Scouts</strong> <strong>Heart</strong> of <strong>Central</strong><br />
California. After looking through <strong>the</strong> calendar,<br />
please review <strong>the</strong> “Registration Information”<br />
section so that you are familiar with <strong>the</strong> process<br />
and procedures related <strong>to</strong> confirmation, billing<br />
and cancellation. We also encourage you <strong>to</strong><br />
read <strong>the</strong> information on <strong>the</strong> new <strong>Girl</strong> Scout age<br />
levels <strong>to</strong> clarify if events are age-appropriate.<br />
Please check <strong>the</strong> council web site as often as you<br />
can at www.girlscoutshcc.org in <strong>the</strong> Programs<br />
and <strong>Events</strong> section. As <strong>Girl</strong> <strong>Scouts</strong>, we tend <strong>to</strong><br />
be quite advanced in our planning. Some of<br />
<strong>the</strong> organizations that offer wonderful program<br />
opportunities for our girls don’t always plan as<br />
far ahead as we do, so during <strong>the</strong> year we will<br />
add special, late-breaking events that haven’t<br />
made it in<strong>to</strong> this book.<br />
Did you know <strong>the</strong> council now owns horses<br />
for girls <strong>to</strong> learn how <strong>to</strong> ride? Look for <strong>the</strong><br />
separate Horse Programs calendar <strong>to</strong> be<br />
published separately for dates and locations of<br />
all our horse riding opportunities (please see<br />
pg. 9 for more details).<br />
We are often looking for volunteers <strong>to</strong> help<br />
staff at events. Please see <strong>the</strong> section on<br />
Helping Hands for ways that you can assist<br />
and receive a discount in <strong>the</strong> event fee. Look<br />
for <strong>the</strong> Hands icon. If you have any questions<br />
regarding <strong>the</strong> content of a specific event/<br />
training, feel free <strong>to</strong> contact <strong>the</strong> Program<br />
Department at info@girlscoutshcc.org or<br />
(916) 638-4475 / (800) 322-4475.<br />
Thank you for your continuing support of <strong>Girl</strong><br />
Scouting and for your interest in exploring new<br />
opportunities for girls. We know you expect<br />
quality programs and we will do our best<br />
<strong>to</strong> deliver!<br />
Program Made<br />
Affordable<br />
As a not-for-profit organization, <strong>Girl</strong> <strong>Scouts</strong><br />
<strong>Heart</strong> of <strong>Central</strong> California carefully balances its<br />
daily business operations with its commitment<br />
<strong>to</strong> member services, especially girl program.<br />
Program events and training are made<br />
affordable through proceeds from <strong>the</strong> Fall<br />
Product and <strong>Girl</strong> Scout Cookie Product<br />
Programs. When you participate in <strong>the</strong>se<br />
product programs, you help raise needed<br />
funds <strong>to</strong> support events and training courses<br />
and keep your participant costs low.<br />
The events and training courses in this<br />
calendar are also partially financed by a<br />
combination of individual gifts, Family<br />
Partnership contributions, grants, corporate<br />
donations, in-kind gifts, and United Way<br />
contributions. We especially rely on <strong>the</strong><br />
generosity of individuals, who are our greatest<br />
supporters, for <strong>the</strong> successful continuation of<br />
<strong>the</strong>se program events and training.<br />
These proceeds and contributions help fund<br />
girl program costs such as research, planning,<br />
facilities, registrations, insurance coverage and<br />
materials. That means we are able <strong>to</strong> provide<br />
events and training courses <strong>to</strong> you at a fee less<br />
than <strong>the</strong> actual cost.<br />
For example: Cookie College last year cost <strong>the</strong><br />
council $30 per girl. The fee we charged each<br />
girl however, was only $10.<br />
Ano<strong>the</strong>r example: Recognition of Excellence<br />
Ceremony costs <strong>the</strong> council $100 per girl. This<br />
is a FREE event for honored awardees, <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
families and friends.<br />
These savings are outside of financial assistance,<br />
which is available for most program<br />
events and training. Please take advantage of<br />
<strong>the</strong> many events and training courses available<br />
<strong>to</strong> you in this year’s program calendar.<br />
Yours in <strong>Girl</strong> <strong>Scouts</strong>,<br />
<strong>Girl</strong> <strong>Scouts</strong> <strong>Heart</strong> of <strong>Central</strong><br />
California Program Staff<br />
When donating <strong>to</strong><br />
United Way, designate<br />

We recognize that we are in a period of transition<br />
when it comes <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong>se grade levels. At this<br />
stage you may choose <strong>to</strong> identify yourself with<br />
a different grade level name than those listed<br />
above. Please look at <strong>the</strong> grade level for each<br />
program event <strong>to</strong> know if you will qualify. We<br />
attempt <strong>to</strong> make program events grade-<br />
appropriate. We will make every effort <strong>to</strong> place<br />
people in <strong>the</strong> correct event according <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
grade levels. If you have problems or questions<br />
on whe<strong>the</strong>r or not you will be able <strong>to</strong> register<br />

Helping Hands<br />
Some programs require<br />
Helping Hands<br />
<strong>to</strong> register<br />
participants, run a station<br />
activity, hand out name tags, set up/clean up,<br />
open/close buildings, etc…<strong>to</strong> find out which<br />
programs need Helping Hands look for <strong>the</strong><br />
symbol in <strong>the</strong> event description.<br />
If your troop is selected <strong>to</strong> serve as Helping<br />
Hands<br />
at a program that you are attending,<br />
we will credit 50% of <strong>the</strong> troop’s registration<br />
fee (up <strong>to</strong> a value of $10 per girl) <strong>to</strong>wards that<br />
or a future program event. For example, if <strong>the</strong><br />
registration fee is $8.00 per girl, and your troop<br />
of 10 girls serves as Helping Hands, you would<br />
receive a $40.00 credit. Your troop members<br />
are still able <strong>to</strong> participate in <strong>the</strong> event if it is<br />
open <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir age group. In <strong>the</strong> case where<br />
your troop volunteers <strong>to</strong> be Helping Hands<br />
at<br />
an event which is not open <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir age group<br />
and where <strong>the</strong>y would not be participating,<br />
but just assisting, <strong>the</strong>n <strong>the</strong>y would be eligible<br />
<strong>to</strong> receive <strong>the</strong> 50% credit (up <strong>to</strong> a value of<br />
$10 per girl) off ano<strong>the</strong>r single day event of<br />
<strong>the</strong>ir choice.<br />

faqs<br />
What does “billing date” mean?<br />
The billing date is normally 8 weeks prior <strong>to</strong> a<br />
one day event or 10 weeks prior <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> event<br />
date of any overnight programs. There are some<br />
exceptions at <strong>the</strong> start of <strong>the</strong> program year and<br />
when <strong>the</strong> billing date would fall over <strong>the</strong> holiday<br />
period. The billing date is <strong>the</strong> date that <strong>the</strong> computer<br />
randomly selects from <strong>the</strong> registrations<br />
received who or which troops will be given <strong>the</strong><br />
first opportunity <strong>to</strong> participate in <strong>the</strong> event.<br />
What if <strong>the</strong> billing date has passed<br />
and I have not been contacted?<br />
Placement of registrations for an event will<br />
not occur 8-10 weeks prior if <strong>the</strong> minimum<br />
attendance has not been reached. Please be<br />
patient or call a sister troop and ask if <strong>the</strong>y<br />
would like <strong>to</strong> participate in <strong>the</strong> event. You may<br />
also call <strong>the</strong> Administration Department or<br />
send an e-mail <strong>to</strong> info@girlscoutshcc.org <strong>to</strong><br />
verify that your registration has been received.<br />
A decision <strong>to</strong> cancel <strong>the</strong> event will be made<br />
four weeks prior <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> event date due <strong>to</strong> low<br />
enrollment and you will be contacted if <strong>the</strong><br />
event is cancelled.<br />

Calling all Program Aides!<br />
Program aides (PA’s) are girls, who have<br />
completed program aide training. The time<br />
you volunteer can be used <strong>to</strong>ward program<br />
aide or community service hours. Program<br />
aides can assist with registration, lead activity<br />
stations, teach songs, and help younger girls<br />
enjoy events. Get qualified as a program aide<br />
through <strong>the</strong> many courses<br />
offered in “Trainings.”<br />
Once qualified, program aides are invited <strong>to</strong><br />
volunteer at <strong>Girl</strong> Scout events. You can also<br />
meet o<strong>the</strong>r program aides and discuss upcoming<br />
opportunities with program specialists<br />
firsthand. Come <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> Program Aide Kickoff,<br />
Friday, Oc<strong>to</strong>ber 17, <strong>2008</strong> at <strong>the</strong> Main <strong>Of</strong>fice in<br />
Rancho Cordova <strong>to</strong> find out more. Then after<br />
your year of service, join us for an evening<br />
recognizing your volunteer efforts on Friday,<br />
June 5, <strong>2009</strong> at our Modes<strong>to</strong> <strong>Of</strong>fice. There will<br />
also be an optional sleepover for this event.<br />
New this coming year will be <strong>the</strong> addition of<br />
a Program Aide - Beyond Basics Workshop<br />
weekend, <strong>to</strong> be held at Fleming Lodge,<br />
Saturday, September 12, through Sunday,<br />
September 13, <strong>2009</strong>, where you can have fun<br />
while practicing leadership and program aide<br />
skills such as time management and preparing<br />
for a station.<br />
For a summary of program aide opportunities<br />
and events, check out “Program Aides.” To<br />
register as a program aide for an event in this<br />
calendar, complete <strong>the</strong> Program Aide Registration<br />
form and indicate <strong>the</strong> event(s) for which<br />
you would like <strong>to</strong> volunteer.<br />
Adult Responsibility<br />
The established ratio of adults <strong>to</strong> girls is normally<br />
achieved at most trainings and events for<br />
girls, ages 11–17, without <strong>the</strong> accompaniment<br />
of a supervising adult. As a result, most do<br />
not require an advisor or o<strong>the</strong>r troop adult <strong>to</strong><br />
stay for <strong>the</strong> duration of <strong>the</strong> activities. There are<br />
instances where adult supervision is required<br />
for an event and troops/individuals will not be<br />
allowed <strong>to</strong> participate without an adult. There<br />
are also events (particularly Outdoor Adventure<br />
Seeker events) where adults are discouraged<br />
from attending, and may not be allowed<br />
<strong>to</strong> participate with <strong>the</strong> girls. Our primary goal is<br />
<strong>to</strong> provide program for girls; as a result, <strong>the</strong>re<br />
may not be space for additional adults above<br />
<strong>the</strong> experienced staff number or <strong>the</strong> Safety-<br />
Wise ratio. Please see individual training/event<br />
descriptions for supervision requirements.<br />
To provide a diverse experience for girls, troop<br />
members may be separated in<strong>to</strong> different<br />
groups during events. Adults may be asked<br />
<strong>to</strong> provide supervision for girls who are not<br />
members of <strong>the</strong>ir troop. Please be sure all<br />
adults and girls with your troop are aware of<br />
this possibility.<br />
A Word About Awards<br />
While <strong>the</strong> <strong>Girl</strong> Scout program usually involves<br />
girls earning awards, this should not be <strong>the</strong><br />
main focus of <strong>the</strong> girl experience. Our events<br />
offer opportunities for girls <strong>to</strong> work on portions<br />
of a particular award. Sometimes all<br />
requirements can be completed at an event;<br />
oftentimes however, work must be concluded<br />
in a troop or individual setting.<br />
Earning an award acknowledges individual<br />
growth or accomplishment and generally takes<br />
time. <strong>Girl</strong>s are encouraged <strong>to</strong> participate in<br />
<strong>Girl</strong> Scout activities without <strong>the</strong> expectation of<br />
always receiving a patch. At all times, advisors<br />
play a key role in stressing <strong>the</strong> program experience<br />
over <strong>the</strong> accumulation of awards.<br />
Tagalongs<br />
A tagalong is a child not registered in your<br />
troop, such as a sibling of any age. A tagalong<br />
can also be a <strong>Girl</strong> Scout who attends an event<br />
that is offered for an age level different than<br />
her own.<br />
Tagalongs are not covered by <strong>Girl</strong> Scout insurance<br />
and change <strong>the</strong> dynamics of <strong>the</strong> event,<br />
which is not fair <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> troop, o<strong>the</strong>r troops or<br />
<strong>the</strong> event facilita<strong>to</strong>r.<br />
The council requests that tagalongs do not<br />
attend events. Those in violation of this<br />
request may be prohibited from attending<br />
future events.<br />

<strong>Girl</strong> Scout Silver Award Ceremony<br />
<strong>Girl</strong> Scout Gold Award ®<br />
The <strong>Girl</strong> Scout Gold Award is <strong>the</strong> culmination<br />
of your <strong>Girl</strong> Scout career; it is an explicit<br />
demonstration of all <strong>the</strong> leadership, organization<br />
and community service skills you have<br />
acquired. It is <strong>the</strong> highest achievement for <strong>Girl</strong><br />
<strong>Scouts</strong> in grades 10-12. Through <strong>the</strong> completion<br />
of this award, not only will you gain a<br />
personal sense of accomplishment and benefit<br />
your community, but you will also join in a network<br />
of tens of thousands of women who have<br />
earned this honor. You’ll find that colleges and<br />
universities, businesses and your community,<br />
recognize <strong>the</strong> effort and leadership you have<br />
demonstrated. In fact, some colleges and<br />
universities offer scholarships <strong>to</strong> girls who have<br />
earned <strong>the</strong>ir <strong>Girl</strong> Scout Gold Award.<br />
If this is <strong>the</strong> first time you have considered <strong>the</strong><br />
<strong>Girl</strong> Scout Gold Award, <strong>the</strong>n you need <strong>to</strong> know<br />
that <strong>the</strong>re are two distinct parts <strong>to</strong> earning it:<br />
<strong>the</strong> prerequisites and <strong>the</strong> project. Within <strong>the</strong><br />
prerequisites, <strong>the</strong>re are five steps. To familiarize<br />
you with <strong>the</strong>se steps, review <strong>the</strong> <strong>Girl</strong><br />
Scout Go For It: <strong>Girl</strong> Scout Gold Award basic<br />
binder insert, or <strong>download</strong> <strong>the</strong> requirements<br />
from www.girlscoutshcc.org. For a <strong>Girl</strong> Scout<br />
Gold Award project, <strong>the</strong> sixth step is your<br />
opportunity <strong>to</strong> combine all <strong>the</strong> <strong>to</strong>ols and skills<br />
acquired from completing <strong>the</strong> prerequisites.<br />
When considering your project, it is important<br />
<strong>to</strong> remember:<br />
• A <strong>Girl</strong> Scout Gold Award project is intended<br />
<strong>to</strong> make a lasting positive impact on your<br />
community.<br />
• Your project must be driven by something<br />
you are passionate about; not your leader,<br />
your parents, your friends or your dog…<br />
but something that inspires you.<br />
• A <strong>Girl</strong> Scout Gold Award project must<br />
be multi-faceted in nature; it should use<br />
multiple methods <strong>to</strong> address your chosen<br />
community issue.<br />
• The neat thing about all this is, that even<br />
though it’s your project, your passion, decision<br />
etc., <strong>the</strong>re are still a <strong>to</strong>n of people who<br />
are ready and willing <strong>to</strong> support you. Just ask.<br />

Adventure Seekers<br />
Outdoor Adventure Seeker: (OAS) that’s you!<br />
You’re always looking for <strong>the</strong> next trail <strong>to</strong> hit,<br />
<strong>the</strong> next mountain <strong>to</strong> board down and <strong>the</strong> next<br />
rock face <strong>to</strong> climb. You’re looking for adventure,<br />
an adrenaline rush, that natural, healthy<br />
high of accomplishment!<br />
OAS events are designed so that girls of all<br />
skill levels can participate successfully. All OAS<br />
events (marked with “OAS” next <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> event<br />
title) are specifically for older girls in grades 8<br />
and up. Our goal is <strong>to</strong> provide an adventure<br />
program that is challenging and accessible<br />
<strong>to</strong> girls who are ready for <strong>the</strong> next level in<br />
outdoor fun.<br />
The really cool thing about OAS events is that<br />
you sign up individually, ra<strong>the</strong>r than as a troop.<br />
So if you’re <strong>the</strong> only one who’s free, or if you<br />
and your friend are <strong>the</strong> only ones who want<br />
<strong>to</strong> go mountain-biking, <strong>the</strong>n you can sign up<br />
without <strong>the</strong> rest of your troop. The council provides<br />
all adult supervision. You can also invite<br />
your non-<strong>Girl</strong> Scout friends <strong>to</strong> check it out with<br />
you. Just call <strong>the</strong> council office and ask how.<br />

Swimming, waterskiing, and windsurfing require <strong>the</strong> presence of a lifeguard. If you are using a facility where a<br />
lifeguard is provided, <strong>the</strong>n you do not need <strong>to</strong> provide additional lifeguards. See Safety-Wise for additional<br />
safety information. For <strong>the</strong>se guidelines, water activities are defined as any activity where girls will be in water<br />
more than knee-deep.<br />
<strong>Girl</strong> <strong>Scouts</strong> of <strong>the</strong> USA has established three levels of lifeguard training. In <strong>2009</strong>, our council will offer American<br />
Red Cross Waterfront Lifeguard Training. This course is designed <strong>to</strong> give adults, 18 years of age and older, basic<br />
lifeguard skills and an emphasis on waterfront skills <strong>to</strong> be used for lakes, rivers, and stream environments. If this<br />
course is not convenient, we suggest you contact your local Red Cross chapter, community college, or recreation<br />
and park district for course availability. The American Red Cross Waterfront Lifeguard course will not be readily<br />
available in most communities. Basic American Red Cross Lifeguard Training classes are generally offered in <strong>the</strong><br />

Good Turn Days<br />
This is a service project for all ages! Help collect usable items for resale<br />
at Goodwill s<strong>to</strong>res throughout most of <strong>the</strong> council’s jurisdiction. When<br />
your troop participates in Good Turn Days, you are “using resources<br />
wisely” and “making <strong>the</strong> world a better place” in so many ways: recycling<br />
materials that might o<strong>the</strong>rwise be thrown out; providing necessary<br />
items for low-income families; and supporting Goodwill Industries jobtraining<br />
and placement programs for people with disabilities. (You will<br />
receive flyers at your service unit meetings in March <strong>2009</strong>.)<br />

4. <strong>Girl</strong>s must complete <strong>the</strong> requirements, obtain <strong>the</strong> proper signatures,<br />
