History:
You already know that Girl Scouts has been impacting girls’ lives for a long time. Perhaps you, your wife, your mother or grandmother were members as girls. The movement is strong today because it has grown since 1912. Our national organization, Girl Scouts of the USA, celebrated its 95th Anniversary in 2007 and is looking ahead to a huge centennial in 2012.
Here in Colorado, Girl Scouts of Colorado was formed in 2007 by a merger of the five legacy councils that had been serving the state, and the incorporation of nine counties that were previously served by councils in border states. As our statewide council begins its journey, we have the proud histories of our legacy councils and our national organization upon which to build.

Activities:
Maybe you’re a science genius or an aspiring writer. Ever wanted to try rock climbing or archery? Do you like to horseback ride or perform in theatre productions? Perhaps you’d like to learn lashing or sign language. Does a slumber party at the mall or the zoo sound like a blast?
Girl Scouts is the place for you! All girls ages 5 to 17 are invited to join!
Field Trip Destinations: Anywhere ranging from the Zoo to India!
Program Information:
Girl Scouts is the nation’s premier leadership experience for girls. It is a safe place for girls to learn more about themselves and the world around them, develop an understanding and empathy for others, and take action to make the world a better place.
Through participation in Girl Scouts, girls gain courage, confidence and character alongside a group of girls who will be their friends for life. In Girl Scouts, girls are guided by committed, caring adults who make learning fun.
Please keep in mind that we are a volunteer organization. Whatever your background, whatever your interest, whatever commitment your schedule permits, Girl Scouts of Colorado needs your experience and energy to serve the increasing number of girls who are or want to be Girl Scouts.
Slogan: Girl Scouting builds girls of courage, confidence and character, who make the world a better place.
