This is what I remember from the “cookie crumbles” handout we got last year (these are rounded to the nearest even cent).$.80 – baker$.60 – individual troop.$. 20 (ish) – patches, stuffed animals, other “incentives”$1.90 – the local council (National doesn’t get any of this money)So the baker itself only gets about 80 cents per box, the rest stays with the local Girl Scouts.
I am currently a girl scout and have been one since first grade(14 now) and basically what you do at our age is help the younger girls with programs and meetings with your troop are just like hanging out with your friends and learning about fun stuff like dancing and cooking and theirs programs with all kinds of stuff like mall lock-ins, overnights,and other stuff but i really like it because it lets me spend some time with friends who don’t go to my school…go to girlscout.org idk where you live or i could tell you the district you are in but just get in contact with your local chapter and they can put you into a troop in your area…hope you join!!!!!
A Girl Scout troop can be as adventurous as the girls and their adult volunteers. So go ahead and start your own troop, and have all the adventures you can!We have some great guy leaders in our area, they add a whole new perspective and set of resources for all of us.
I wish I could help, I really do, but that would violate the conditions of my parole.
To find your local Girl Scout Council, go to the site below – it’s GSUSA’s Council Finder. Contact the Council office and they’ll help you with registration (this is the perfect time to be looking, most troops are just starting up right now, but most also take mid-year registrations). The annual registration fee just to be a Girl Scout under the national guidelines is $10 – that only covers the national registration (and the only real direct result of that for the girl – besides being officially a Girl Scout – is that it provides insurance during GS activities). None of that money stays with the local troop or Council. Financial Aid is available to cover that fee if it’s an issue. Local troops all operate individually, so the dues – among everything else – will vary. Troops are as different as the girls and leaders involved, so also remember that if she gets in a troop that isn’t a good fit, don’t give up on the organization entirely! *Most* but not all Council’s provide some financial aid for troop dues and the basic uniform components (uniforms are optional in GS, but at the very least, most girls have a vest or sash for holding the awards they earn). If the finances are a problem, don’t be afraid to talk to the GS Leader privately about financial aid. And ask her (usually her, there are some male GS leaders as well) how expenses over the course of the year go – some troops include everything in dues, some charge dues just for meeting supplies and the Badges, Try Its, etc., and then charge more for special activities, etc. It just helps to have an idea up front.If your cousin is in the 1st – 3rd grade, she would most likely register as a Brownie Girl Scout, and in 4th – 6th grade as a Junior Girl Scout. (The levels are changing a bit next fall, but for right now, that’s where she’d start.)Good luck!
Ask the PARENTS to attend the next regular meeting, when there is no trip in progress, Explain the problems that you’ve had calmly and politely.Have examples ready.Tell them that such behavior is contrary to the Girl Scout promise and rules and is unacceptable and will not be tolerated.Tell everyone that THE NEXT TIME there is trouble, the girls causing it will be expelled from the troop.Then do it.Yes, really.
This year? Well, here in the United States, in 2010, the annual Girl Scout cookie sale will officially start February 22nd.Stock up! Girl Scout troops can always use the money.
Are you sure it’s Girl Scouts doing it? If so, I would approach them (if you catch them) and ask them which troop they’re in and go find the troop leader – they might get kicked out or something. Also, speak to their parents because I bet they wouldn’t be pleased to find their daughter doing that sort of thing. Or just call the cops. Install some surveillance video and record it and hand it over to the cops. I’ve worked with Girl Scouts for YEARS and have a difficult time picturing my girls ever doing that.
Hello Lori: Your parents want you to participate in Girl Scouts so that you have a positive activity in your life. As a parent, I see skaters as poor role models; kids with no positive adult influences, adamant disrespect for adults / authority, and possible connections to drugs &/or crime. This may or may not be true; however the attitudes and appearances of the skaters reflect this in an adult’s perception. If you don’t like Girl Scouts, you need to explore a group that will reassure your parents you will be around people with a positive influence and potential for a future. If you can find an activity that will fulfill this and suggest it to your parents, they may capitulate and support your desire. If you only want to skate, Be Prepared to attend more Scout meetings.
I think just to make them match. The Bridge to Brownies used to be earned after completing the three Brownie B’s, which fit perfectly under the rainbow patch (they were like 3 pie piece shapes). The colors seemed to make sense to go along with the “Worlds to Explore” program you’d move to when you were a Junior – different badges were in different categories (“The World of Arts” and so on), and had a different color thread around the outside to show which world they were from.But back then the Bridge to Cadettes was just a straight yellow (fabric) bar with the GS sign in the middle, not the current straight rainbow thing – I just think they changed them to all match when they did away with Worlds to Explore, broke the Cadettes out from Juniors for Badge earning, and added the whole Daisy level.
Not true. Boy Scouts has that policy; Girl Scouts of the USA (GSUSA) is an entirely separate organization with different rules and guidelines. It is official policy to accept all girls and adults without regard to sexual orientation on the national level. The Girl Scout Promise – which all members have to accept – does include the promise to “serve God,” but the organization has added that “the word “God” can be interpreted in a number of ways, depending on one’s spiritual beliefs. When reciting the Girl Scout Promise, it is okay to replace the word “God” with whatever word your spiritual beliefs dictate.” If you don’t believe in anything, that’s a bit harder (I tend to say “to serve good” since I’m kind of agnostic when I’m not teaching it to girls, just reciting it).The Constitution of GSUSA states: “The motivating force in Girl Scouting is spiritual. The ways in which members identify and fulfill their spiritual beliefs are personal and private.”So, atheism is kind of a gray area, but you’ll probably never have an issue if you don’t make an issue of it (like, your troop won’t try to convert you, but if you mock their religions, don’t expect them to sit back and take it while considering your non-belief sacred – and vice versa!)
You can’t. That’s the thing with Girl Scout cookies. You can only get them when the GS are selling them. However, I’m sure you can find them on ebay.
Senior Girl Scouts aged 15-18 are eligible to earn the award. Girls may begin working on the first three parts at age 14, but cannot start the service project until age 15. The requirements were updated in 2004 and include:The Girl Scout Gold Leadership Award, which requires girls to complete 30 hours of leadership work, as well as earn three Interest Projects and one Focus Book relevant to their project. The Girl Scout Gold Career Award, which requires girls to complete 40 hours of career exploration. The Girl Scout Gold 4Bs Challenge, which requires girls to assess their community and its needs, and develop a vision for change. Up to 15 hours work on the 4Bs challenge may be counted toward the 65 hours for the service project. Once these steps have been met, girls use their vision for change to complete a service project that reaches beyond the Girl Scout organization and provides lasting benefit to the girl’s larger community. It requires a minimum of 65 hours of work in planning and actually completing the project. All of these hours must be completed by the Awardee, and though it is encouraged that the girl use troop members and other from the community to help her, their time spent does not count towards her 65 hour requirement. Plans must be developed with the aid of an advisor, then a project proposal must be submitted and approved by the girl’s local council before starting the project, and a final report after the project’s completion.
Rescue and foster neglected animals. It really makes a difference.
You’d have to register as a Girl Scout yourself (even if helping is all you want to do – you don’t have to join a troop; you can register as a “Juliette” – an independent Girl Scout). There are a variety of trainings you could take (Program Aide, then specializations within that, Leader In Training) depending on what level you are, or you could most likely just find some local leaders who’d love another set of hands and ideas to help out at meetings if you don’t want to pursue GS awards for it. If you contact your local GS Council, they can point you in the right direction if you don’t know anyone locally already involved.
