Girl
Scouts is a wonderful experience for girls
and adults!
Girls
Come
experience the fun, friendship and power of girls
together! All girls ages 5-17 are welcome, as long as they
agree to make the Girl Scout
Promise, accept
the Girl Scout Law
and
pay the $10 national membership dues.
Girl
Scout Council of the Mid-South offers the Girl Scout
program to girls living within our 10-county, three-state jurisdiction.
The five different age levels
in Girl Scouts allow for girls to progress in skills and
activities together. Placement
options give girls the chance to experience Girl
Scouting in a variety of ways – including but not
limited to, at church, school, housing communities, and
individually. Financial
assistance is available to eliminate economic
barriers.
Girls
in Girl Scouts have the opportunity to make new friends,
go camping, do science experiments, help others, learn
about careers, travel, mentor younger girls, canoe, hang
out with other Girl Scouts, etc. You can dream, plan and
carry out almost any adventure.
If
you’re ready to start your Girl Scout adventure right
now, or if you want to learn more, contact Girl Scout
Council of the Mid-South’s membership
department. Read the frequently
asked questions (FAQs) section to find some
answers, too.
Adults
It’s never too
late to be a Girl Scout! Here in the Mid-South, there are
around 2,500 adults (women and men) who believe in the
value of Girl Scouting and show their support and
commitment by being registered members of Girl Scouts of
the USA.
Adult members
must accept the principles and beliefs as stated in
GSUSA’s Preamble of the Constitution; pay national dues
($10 per year) and meet applicable membership standards.
As an adult
member, you will receive council publications and
GSUSA’s Leader magazine, can take advantage of trainings
offered by the council, enrich you life and made a
difference! To learn more about being involved, see the
information provided in the Volunteer
section.
