Girl Guides USA announces its inaugural Brooklyn Company! Come be a part of a unique Girl Guiding program, launched in Brooklyn.
Girl Guides USA is an exciting new Scouting organization for
girls in grades 4 through 10, emphasizing youth empowerment, teamwork
and environmentalism. Girl Guides provides girls with an
enlightening and empowering social education based on the principles of
Scouting and Guiding. Girl Guides is a year-round program, with
meetings during the school
year that prepare Guides for a two-week camp in the summer. Girl
Guides meet twice a month on weekends for afternoons, day trips and
overnights. As long as the weather permits,
meetings involve outdoor activities including games, hikes,
canoeing, and more. The grand finale of the year is camp, where Girl
Guides spend two
weeks each summer living in nature together and having tons of fun.
Girl Guides programs provide hands-on practice in using
teamwork, cooperation, creativity and ingenuity to solve problems and
achieve goals together.
Girl Guides USA is launching its first American program this
December in Brooklyn. Come learn more about how to get your child (or
yourself!) involved in the inaugural Company. Girls of all backgrounds are welcome and encouraged to attend.
