Teen Girl Scouts

Girls ages 11-17 participate in Girl Scouting in many ways. Under the guidance of a trained adult advisor, girls mix and match activities and resources to suit their needs while giving back to their communities. They connect with each other and build self-esteem and confidence in their skills as they work on a range of projects and gain life experiences.

Sample Activities for Girl Scouts 11-17
  • Learning how to be a first responder in an emergency
  • Setting goals and earning charms related to a STUDIO 2BSM Focus book
  • Exploring their future career options with a mentor
  • Spending a summer as a counselor-in-training at camp
  • Rafting down Class III (moderately difficult) rapids with a river guide
  • Publishing their stories online on the STUDIO 2B Web site
  • Attending a Broadway play on a trip to New York City
  • Investing "play dough" in a stock-market game and beating the experts
  • Earning a Girl Scout Gold Award, the highest honor in Girl Scouting, for working on a project that benefits their community
  • Traveling across the country or around the world to explore culture, science, the outdoors, and more through STUDIO 2B destinations.
Destinations and Getaways!
A destination is your chance to go somewhere new, do something different, and meet people from everywhere you can imagine. You can travel around the corner or around the globe. There are GSNENY Destinations and GSUSA sponsored national and international Destinations. For most Destinations and Getaways girls sign up individually and without an adult, though troops of girls are also welcome.
