Girl Scouts is the safe and obvious choice for families today to keep girls connected to friends and their communities. Girl Scouts offers exactly what parents want for their daughters: to learn good citizenship, involvement in and giving back to the community, gaining courage, and a girl-led program that is not narrow or limiting. Since 1912, Girl Scouting has been the preeminent girl-led organization building girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place. For more information about opportunities for older girls, please contact us at info@gsdsw.org or (915) 566-9433.
