This year, GSP2P will launch a new customer support initiative, CEI, to better support our girl and adult members. CEI will streamline the process to register for Girl Scouting and, ultimately, for programs, trainings and events, and will provide resources for troop management. The three phases of our CEI implementation taking place over the next year are: 1) membership registration, 2) Volunteer Toolkit, and 3) program registration. 1. What is CEI? CEI, which stands for Customer Engagement…

Why is It Beneficial to Provide Portable Sink Stations on Girl Scout Trips? Becoming a girl scout can help to prepare a young girl to become a well-rounded and functional adult. While girl scouts participate in a number of different activities, such as selling their famous cookies, one of the most celebrated functions are the periodic camping trips in which they spend several nights out in an open and natural environment. Although very little consideration is given to hygiene when discussing…

There 's never been a time when I wanted to be anything but a doctor, more specifically a surgeon, and my life experiences have only strengthened my resolve to accomplish this. Having struggled with depression and anxiety, it led to psychiatric hospitalizations, medications, psychotherapy, and a residential treatment center, yet it formed my passions and purpose for Psychology and Neuroscience. With my conditions, it increasingly developed my desire to help and care for people, and I gladly…

For me, the best benefit has been the people I have met and the friends that I have made that will be my friends forever! But I have also learned a lot by being a Girl Scout and had the chance to do things that I would not have had the chance to do if I wasn’t a Girl Scout. We get to go camping, canoeing, and do cool things like archery. From cookie sales, we learn about businesses, selling and how to talk to people. We learn about setting goals, and budgeting. With…

internship was interning at the Girl Scout Shop of Nassau County in Hicksville at 325 Duffy Ave. I enjoyed helping parents get what materials they need to start Girl Scouts and find the patches required to complete their uniform. When a customer come in we would ask if they need help or ask what they are looking for. Girls come in for a uniform, we size it for the girls and tell the parents what they need to put on the uniform patches they need to start girl scouts and the American Flag,…

I am attracted to the Boy Scout program by the campouts, service projects, helping Cub Scouts, and the normal fun things Boy Scouts do. I began Cub Scouts and that helped me get a feel for what Boy Scouts is. I did all the ranks from Tiger to Weblo 2, although I did not create an Arrow Of Light when I crossed over to Boy Scout. I joined Boy Souts and thought it would be "lame", but that was the total opposite of what I thought, that also attracted me to Boy Scouts because I learned what you do…

Tye River Elementary School is located in Nelson County, Virginia. It is a public elementary school serving children from the grades of preschool through fifth grade. It is conveniently located off of route 29, but it is also placed far enough away from the road that it does not pose as a distraction or threat to the children attending the school. Both the inside and outside architecture is eye pleasing, giving the sense of friendliness to visitors. Overall Tye River Elementary school has…

actually find a tombstone every mile. This is definitely creepy, especially if you want to go ahead and investigate the region. If you want to stay safe and you dislike creepy stuff like this, it’s a good idea to just stay away from the region! 5. Boy Scout Lane in Stevens Point,…

that mirrors what a definition of folklore could look like is the adult Girl Scout “troop” that meets weekly in Bowling Green Kentucky. The group is made up of 12 members who were former Girl Scouts but paid their membership fee to become lifelong Girl Scout Members. I had the pleasure of interviewing the woman who created the group and has kept it going for several years. Her name is Elizabeth Brown and she was in Girl Scouts for 15 years. While interviewing Ms. Brown I observed how the group…

I feel that working as a member of the staff at a Boy Scout camp is one of the most life changing experiences I have ever had. It taught me the value of hard work, time management, how to work with others, and how to handle large amounts of stress. The most important thing; however, is the relationships that I have built with my fellow staff members. I started work at Camp Rainey Mountain as soon as could the summer of twenty twelve as a counselor in training, or CIT, and I fell in love with it…
