When you’re a Girl Scout, you call the shots.
Every Girl Scout has their own curiosity, dreams, and talents—so when they come together to decide which of the many Girl Scout activities to try, the sky’s the limit.
Forever friendship is a powerful thing. It’s what gives Girl Scouts the confidence to be themselves, unapologetically. It’s what makes them feel safe enough to try new things and cheer each other on in tough times. It’s the support that can get them up on tough mornings, help them raise their hand in class, and even climb to the top of a mountain.
Girl Scout Promise
On my honor, I will try:
To serve God* and my country,
To help people at all times,
And to live by the Girl Scout Law.
*Members may substitute for the word God
in accordance with
their own spiritual beliefs.
Girl Scout Family Promise
On my honor, I will try:
To support my Girl Scout and her
troop,
To help girls lead at all times,
And to always keep
it fun!
Girl Scout Law
I will do my best to be
honest and fair,
friendly and
helpful,
considerate and caring,
courageous and
strong,
and responsible for what I say and do,
and to
respect myself and others,
respect authority,
use
resources wisely,
make the world a better place,
and be a
sister to every Girl Scout.
From joining
a troop to spending a weekend
at camp or taking part in a special event, Girl Scouts have so many
opportunities to make lifelong friends.
Whether exploring state parks or visiting camp, there are as many ways to adventure as there are Girl Scouts! Go solo or with your entire troop and try something new.
Anyone can tell others what to do. A true leader can make smart decisions, act fairly and responsibly, and let others on the team shine as they work together.
With a squad that will cheer you on and the chance to try new things, the Girl Scout community is a place to call your own, test your limits, and have a blast.
Making the world a better place is all in a day’s work for a Girl Scout. Take it to the next level when you earn the Girl Scout Bronze, Silver, or Gold Awards.
Then take those badge skills further with a Leadership Award, Journey Award or a Highest Award. Leadership and Journey awards allow Girl Scouts to show they know how to take action and make a difference in their community. A highest award shows they know how to make sustainable change.
Grade levels
Each level of Girl Scouts is unique with a wide variety of activities to try. Girl Scouts can begin in kindergarten and join all the way through twelfth grade. As a Girl Scout progresses, every level builds upon the last and allows them to explore their interests in a way that is meaningful—and age-appropriate—to them.
