GIRL SCOUTS of
SOUTHERN ARIZONA
girlscoutssoaz.org
THE 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.
Dear Girls, Volunteers, Parents & Caregivers:
Welcome to the Adventure Guide! The Adventure Guide was designed with
you all in mind. Programs and activities have been developed to engage and
inspire girls and families of all ages. Your Girl Scout team asked volunteers and
girls what kind of Adventures they wanted to experience during the upcoming
Girl Scout year and then set out to craft some very cool adventures.
The Guide includes opportunities for girls to earn badges and complete
journeys in the company of girls from across the Council at special day
and weekend events. Girl Scouts is all about making new friends while
building new skills and the Badge and Journey activities can be enjoyed by
all Scouts. Troops can come together or girls are welcome independently.
The goal of these days is to give all girls the opportunity to try on a variety
of Girl Scout Leadership Experiences. You will find these special days in
Tucson as well as Yuma, Sierra Vista, Nogales and Casa Grande. This year
we have teamed with community partners to arrange special programs
for our Girls. You will find programs offered by Mad Science, Girl Power,
First Tee and the Desert Museum to name just a few. I truly believe that
we have a program and a partner to meet our girls’ unique interests.
THE 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.
Taking Action defines what girls love about Girl Scouting. This year you
will find activities planned for every National Day of Service. Girls also
love to explore the outdoors and this year is the year for Jamboree.
Come camp with hundreds of your Girl Scout sisters as we make new
friends from across the state. If your Troop can’t attend Jamboree then
check out the special troop camps that are being offered during the year.
Another highlight of this Adventure Guide are all the programs planned
and facilitated by our MoveMENt group. This group of Dads and Guys
create cool “she and him” opportunities for our girls. Girls can go fishing,
bowling or miniature golfing with that special guy in their lives. It is the
perfect way for men to prove that they are “Man Enough to Be Girl
Scouts” while enjoying special time with the Girl Scout in their life.
I would also like to encourage girls, troops and families to join me on several Walks
with the Chief. I will be leading teams as we walk to support a variety of causes
that touch the lives of our girls and their families. These will be awesome ways
to get moving and to raise awareness for issues that our families grapple with.
Girl Scouting is all about fun and adventure while making friends and
Discovering, Connecting and Taking Action in the community. The
programs we have planned will definitely serve our girls well!
Please join me in this year of adventure designed with you
and your girls in mind.
On My Honor,
Debbie Rich (Chief Girl Scout)
