Hey mamas! If you are looking for a great activity to get your daughter involved in, we have a perfect one that builds friendships, develops character, and creates lasting memories. We have partnered with the Girl Scouts of Greater Atlanta to bring you the following information on Girl Scouts, as well as some of their great upcoming events! In order to attend these events, your girl must be a registered Girl Scout. To join in the fun, visit join.girlscoutsatl.org.
At Girl Scouts, girls have the opportunity to have tons of fun, make new friends and go on fantastic new adventures! They will discover who they are and what they care about, collaborate with others to make a difference and do things they never thought they could, all while making the world a better place.
In addition to regular troop meetings, girls have the opportunity to attend awesome events throughout the year. Our events cover almost every topic, such as outdoors, STEM, sports or nature, and are hosted at some of the most exciting places around Atlanta. Events range in price and can be attended as an individual Girl Scout or as a troop. Some even include the whole families!
Below is a small highlight of some of the incredible events coming up this fall. Did you know that you don’t have to be placed in a troop in order to be a part of these awesome events? However, in order to attend, your girl MUST be a registered Girl Scout. To join, visit this link.
