GIRL SCOUT LEADERSHIP EXPERIENCE (GSLE) - THE FOUNDATION OF ALL GIRL SCOUT PROGRAMMING, OUR EXPERIENCE INCLUDES FUN & CHALLENGING ACTIVITIES THAT HELP GIRLS DISCOVER WHO THEY ARE, WHERE THEIR TALENTS LIE, AND WHAT THEY CARE MOST ABOUT WHILE EXPLORING 4 MAIN PROGRAM PILLARS: STEM, OUTDOORS, LIFE SKILLS, AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP. EVERY ADVENTURE IS ROOTED IN 3 CORE WAYS OF LEARNING: GIRL-LED, LEARNING BY DOING, AND COOPERATIVE LEARNING. IN 2020, OUR PROGRAMMING PIVOTED TO HELP GIRLS ENGAGE WITH OTHERS AND SUPPORT THEIR COMMUNITY THROUGHOUT THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC. CONTINUED ON SCHEDULE O.6300 GIRL SCOUTS ENGAGED IN ACTIVITIES THAT ALLOWED THEM TO DEVELOP A STRONG SENSE OF SELF, DISPLAY POSITIVE VALUES, SEEK CHALLENGES AND LEARN FROM SETBACKS, FORM HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS, AND BECOME COMMUNITY PROBLEM SOLVERS, INCLUDING THOUSANDS OF MASKS MADE FOR FRONTLINE WORKERS IN OUR AREA, OVER 1.13M BOXES OF COOKIES SOLD BY 5,500+ GIRLS AND 42K PACKAGES DONATED, AND COUNTLESS HOURS OF COMMUNITY SERVICE TOWARD HIGHEST AWARDS. 35 GIRLS EARNED THE GOLD AWARD, THE NATIONAL ORGANIZATION'S HIGHEST HONOR, BY CREATING A LONG-TERM SOLUTION TO A COMMUNITY PROBLEM THAT DEMONSTRATES AN IMPACTFUL AND SUSTAINABLE DIFFERENCE. 110 GIRLS EARNED THE SILVER AWARD AND 144 EARNED THE BRONZE AWARD.

MEMBERSHIP ENGAGEMENT - GIRL SCOUTING IS PRIMARILY DELIVERED BY VOLUNTEERS WITH COUNCIL SUPPORT AND RESOURCES DEDICATED FOR GIRL AND ADULT RECRUITMENT, REGISTRATION, AND PLACEMENT, AND VOLUNTEER EDUCATION, SUPPORT, RETENTION, AND MANAGEMENT. DURING 2020, WE SERVED 6300 GIRLS THANKS TO OUR DEDICATED 3200 ADULT MEMBERS, AND TRAINED 650 ADULTS IN REQUIRED AND ENRICHMENT TRAININGS. OUR GOAL IS TO SERVE EVERY GIRL WHO WANTS TO BE A GIRL SCOUT WHATEVER THE CIRCUMSTANCES AND OFFER A VARIETY OF EXCITING EXPERIENCES FOR ALL GIRLS, MEETING THEM WHERE THEY ARE IN THEIR COMMUNITIES. APPROXIMATELY 10% OF OUR 2020 MEMBERSHIP REPRESENTED GIRLS FROM UNDERSERVED AND/OR FRAGILE COMMUNITIES SERVED THROUGH OUR OUTREACH PROGRAM.

CAMP & OUTDOOR EXPERIENCE - THE OUTDOOR EXPERIENCE IS A CRITICAL COMPONENT OF THE GIRL SCOUT PROGRAM AS IT ENCOURAGES GIRLS TO TAKE RISKS, IMPROVE PROBLEM SOLVING SKILLS, OVERCOME FEARS, WORK TOGETHER, AND "UN-PLUG" IN THE GREAT OUTDOORS. IN 2020, OUR OUTDOOR PROGRAMMING SHIFTED TO ENCOURAGE GIRLS TO GET OUTDOORS WITH FAMILIES AND THOSE IN THEIR HOUSEHOLDS, AS OPPOSED TO OUR TRADITIONAL SUMMER CAMP MODEL. 3600 GIRLS AND ADULTS PARTICIPATED IN OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES, INCLUDING VIRTUAL CAMP, FAMILY CAMP DAYS, TROOP OUTDOOR EVENTS, AND MORE. HIKING, ARCHERY, OUTDOOR EXPLORATION, FIRE BUILDING, OUTDOOR COOKING, CANOEING, AND SWIMMING WERE CORNERSTONES OF OUR OUTDOOR PROGRAM EXPERIENCE THIS YEAR.
