Soon Girl Scouts will be thinking about warmer days and summer fun! Perhaps those thoughts include spending time at one of our amazing GSNI camps during a theme week. Maybe for some Girl Scouts the time has finally come for them to be a Program Aide at a day camp that they themselves have been attending since they were a Girl Scout Daisy!
Teen mentoring is an exciting part of a Girl Scout’s development and a win-win proposition! As teen mentors, Girl Scouts gain experience by sharing skills, testing knowledge, and trying out new leadership roles. For those being mentored, it means a chance to be with and learn from teens—some of their favorite people!
