Welcome to our Happening Now page, where you will find the council's latest activities, events, and celebrations. You'll soon discover there's never a dull moment in Girl Scouting! Girls have plenty of fun adventures to explore every day. And in the process, they make new friends, learn new things, and discover their full potential as leaders.
Check in as often as you would like to see what's Happening Now for girls and their families!
We can think of many fun things to do during the summer, like take a vacation, attend summer camp, or relax at home. Whatever you do this summer, we encourage you to take some time to read a great book! Whether it's for fifteen minutes or two hours, dive into a book that will teach you something new, take you on a voyage, or make you fall in love with the characters.
We invite girls to participate in our Summer Reading Club from June 1 to July 31 and earn a I Love to Read patch!
Reading is an ideal summer activity. It's portable, and it can involve the whole family. In addition, it can help retain learning, improve vocabulary, and help reduce stress. Check out the suggested books below.
1. Read at least two books on the Girl Scout book list. For chapter books, any book in the series will count as a book read off the book list.
• Daisies (kindergarten and first grade) – complete 12 hours of reading.
• Brownies (second and third grade) – complete 15 hours of reading.
• Junior (fourth and fifth grade) – complete 20 hours of reading.
• Cadette and above (6-12 grade) – complete 30 hours of reading.
