ORGANIZATION: Girl Scouts Nation’s Capital

Join Girl Scouts for a week of camp! Camp Discovery serves girls grades K-5 during spring break to provide a week of fun, safe, and engaging Girl Scout programming. Our camp serves girls who for whatever reason do not participate in traditional Girl Scout troops. It is a great opportunity to make a meaningful difference in a girl's life this spring!

Camp activities are largely planned by teen Girl Scouts but adults are needed to help chaperone groups as they rotate through the day's activities and ensure that Girl Scout safety standards are adhered to.

Mission Statement

Girl Scouting builds girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place. We seek to accomplish this by providing girls opportunities to develop their potential and have fun with their peers in a supportive, all-girl setting.

Description

Founded in 1912, Girl Scouts of the USA is the preeminent organization for girls with a current membership of 3.6 million girls and adults. Volunteers use their expertise, skills, interests, and life experience to shape fun and enriching leadership experiences for girls, and inspire them to reach their personal best. Volunteers help council staff facilitate the New Girl Scout Leadership Experience to girls through exciting program opportunities: leadership/self-esteem, financial literacy, travel, health/wellness, science, technology, engineering, and math. Volunteers choose from several flexible Pathways (the ways that girls and adults join Girl Scouting) that fit their lifestyles, including short-term or long-term service working either directly or indirectly with girls, and they can participate regionally, nationally, and internationally.
