What Can a Girl Scout Do? Let’s rephrase that question with…what CAN’T<br />
a Girl Scout do?<br />
Free Estimates<br />
While some people still think of Girl Scouts as just cookies, campfires and<br />
friendship bracelets, Girl Scouts is so much more! They are big thinkers,<br />
ground-breakers and role models. They design robots, improve their<br />
communities - and yes, Girl Scouts sell the best cookies on the planet!<br />
A Girl Scout is a G.I.R.L. (Go-getter, Innovator, Risk-taker, Leader). Girl<br />
Scouts teaches girls to empower themselves by engaging in girl-led,<br />
collaborative and hands-on experiences. Guided by supportive adults<br />
who help them pursue their goals, girls participate in a variety of fun and<br />
challenging activities.<br />
Girl Scouts is the largest leadership organization for girls. To join, girls<br />
must be in grades kindergarten-12 th grade. The annual membership is $25<br />
and financial assistance is available, if needed.<br />

BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA - COPPERHEAD DISTRICT<br />
For 100 years, Scouting programs have instilled in youth the values found<br />
in the Scout Oath and Scout Law. Today, these values are just as relevant<br />
in helping youth grow to their full potential as they were in 1910. Scouting<br />
helps youth develop academic skills, self-confidence, ethics, leadership<br />
skills, outdoor skills and citizenship skills that influence their adult lives.<br />
The Boy Scouts of America provides youth with programs and activities<br />
that allow them to:<br />
• Try new things<br />
• Provide service to others<br />
• Build self-confidence • Reinforce ethical standards<br />
Scouting provides youth with a sense that they are important as<br />
individuals while promoting activities that lead to personal responsibility<br />
