Celebrating Our Graduating Girl Scouts
|
Each year, our Girl Scout Ambassadors graduate high school and age out of our traditional program for girls, but their Girl Scout friendships, memories, and adventures remain with them for life! This year we will launch a new campaign to applaud our graduating Girl Scouts and to welcome them as our most recent alums!
Graduates, be on the lookout for a surprise package heading your way early this summer. We are so proud of you and welcome you to the lifetime sisterhood of Girl Scouts as you become a proud alum! Congratulations!

What Girl Scouts Stands For
|
To make the world a better place, we must commit to working together build an antiracist society. Not being a racist is not enough. Honoring diversity without being inclusive is not enough. Inclusivity is a big part of the Girl Scout DNA. From the very moment founder Juliette Gordon Low first mentioned her plans to start Girl Scouts, it was set to be an organization not only for the girls of Savannah but also for “all of America, and all the world." And if you didn’t already know, Girl Scouts is a nonpolitical, nonpartisan organization, we are not red or blue, we are Girl Scout green and proud.

Troop #3003 of Pitt County has been working on their WOW Journey and Get Moving Journey from home. Though it has been a challenge, they made it work and learned how to take care of the planet and make an impact while they are together but apart. They have also worked on their Musician, Gardener,
My Family History, and Household Elf Badges and a
paddle boat challenge and leap bot challenge... all from home!
