Start a Girl Scout Troop in Your Area
A Girl Scout troop, or a group of Girl Scouts and volunteers that meet regularly, is one of many ways to participate in Girl Scouting. Troops set their own schedule for meetings, decide what activities they want to enjoy, and find ways to improve their community.
Caregivers and community members make a key difference in the lives of Girl Scouts by guiding them through the Girl Scout Leadership Experience! Leading a troop is a rewarding and great time, and we'll support you every step of the way. We provide our leaders with:
Convenient, online training
Individual guidance from council staff and trained volunteers
Online resources to help you quickly and easily prepare for meetings
Flexibility to set the troop meeting times and locations based on your needs
Developing Your Own Skills
Discover hidden strengths, new passions, and your ability to lead as a Girl Scout leader!
