Greetings from Girl Scouts

n!

iti o

lo

It may be an overused phrase, ok but it certainly does apply to d ou this year’s Program Guide— t for a new e and Girl Scouts. Girls, get ready for a rollicking ride with upcoming new activities! Learn how to make a robot, go behind the scenes at the Oregon Zoo or find adventure in the great outdoors at one of our camp experiences.

The activities in this Program Guide also highlight community partners—organizations throughout the council who bring their expertise to the learning structure of Girl Scouts. Service units, troops and groups can even utilize these partners to host amazing events around the council.

Check out the new Program on Demand section on page 25 to see the many options for additional fabulous Girl Scout experiences.

This edition of the Program Guide will spark your ideas for new ways to learn, and is intended to help you navigate the broad and rich possibilities ahead.

I challenge you to try something new, push yourself a little bit, go somewhere that you haven’t been before or attend something on your own without your friends. I guarantee that the 100-year traditions of friendship, fun and leadership will still be there, and that’s a cliche that never gets old.

Yours in Girl Scouting, Karen Hill, CEO

GRADE LEVELS

Find your grade on the green ribbons below to determine your Girl Scout grade level, and look for your corresponding color throughout the Program Guide to discover the adventures that await you!

GRADES K-1 DAISY

As a Girl Scout Daisy, you can go on short trips, learn about nature and science, and explore the arts and your community. You can also earn Learning Petals, receive participation patches and complete special Daisy leadership journeys!

GRADES 6-8

GRADES 2-3

GRADES 4-5

BROWNIE

JUNIOR

GRADES 9-10

GRADES 11-12

As a Girl Scout Brownie, you learn about yourself, your family, friends and the world around you. You can earn badges for learning new things and complete special Brownie Leadership Journeys, too.

As a Girl Scout Junior, you begin to practice leadership skills as you try new activities.

You can earn badges while mastering new skills and completing special Junior Leadership Journeys. You are also eligible to earn the Girl Scout Bronze Award!

What does Individually Registered Girl (IRG) mean?

An IRG is an individually registered girl ages 5-17 who participates in the Girl Scout Pathways but is not affiliated with a traditional Girl Scout troop. Today’s girls have so many opportunities to get involved in activities, it is becoming increasingly harder to find time for everything. As an IRG you are afforded the same opportunities as girls in traditional troops. You may participate in Girl Scouts of Oregon and Southwest Washington-sponsored events in addition to service unit events, community service projects, camp, travel, series, product sales, and other opportunities found on our website.

Additionally, each IRG receives credit for a percentage of her product sales. This represents funds that, had the IRG participated as a troop member, would have been allocated to her troop. These funds are applied after each sale (Girl Scout Cookie Program in spring; Fall Sale Program in autumn) has concluded. The credits are posted and used in the same manner as our existing cookie credit program. For more information, please refer to our website or contact our product sales team with questions.

Girl Scout Pathways

Which path is right for you?

There are more ways for girls to participate in Girl Scouts than ever! We call them pathways, and they include troop, events, camp, series and travel. They were developed by GSUSA by matching grade level preferences and availability with flexible options. Girl Scout pathways are how we deliver the Girl Scout Leadership Experience to all girls, supported by a comprehensive model of volunteerism– it is our delivery system and internal way of organizing our program offerings.

The camp pathway allows girls to participate in the outdoors and/or focus on environmental education. Day and weekend camping is offered during the school year while resident camp and day camp are offered during the summer months. Going to a camp is one of the most popular and recognized aspects of Girl Scouts. For many girls, camp is the first opportunity they have to experience archery, ropes courses, horseback riding, stargazing and more!. The camp pathway is available to any girl regardless of previous Girl Scout involvement.

The travel pathway offers girls leadership opportunities and cross-cultural understanding through local, regional, national and international travel. Girls participate through troop travel, councilsponsored trips, and/or nationally-sponsored trips. Girls can participate in travel patrols, working with a group of girls and chaperones who want travel to see the world! Where do you want to go in this world? The travel pathway is available to any girl regardless of previous Girl Scout involvement.

The series pathway gives girls the opportunity to explore a specific theme or topic without making a long term commitment or joining a troop. Each girl chooses to participate in the entire series as a complete program package. Series offerings may be short term (for example, six days of two-hour meetings) or longer term (such as meeting every two weeks for 12 weeks) but are always shorter than an academic year. Note: Some series offerings are progressive, building on skills searned from a prveious session and may require a prerequisite.

The troop pathway offers a group of girls the opportunity to participate regularly in a variety of activities, usually over a span of nine to 12 months. Girls may join at any time during the troop year. Note: A troop that also goes camping or travels as a group is still operating in the troop pathway (not the camp, travel or event pathways). The troop pathway is available to any girl regardless of previous Girl Scout involvement.

The event pathway is for Girl Scouts who like to pick and choose from a menu of events that interest them. Events are stand-alone program offerings; examples might include a leadership event for Girl Scout Seniors and Ambassadors or a council celebration such as GirlFest! The primary difference between events and all other pathways is that different girls participate in each event, as opposed to one group of girls coming together regularly.

The event pathway is available to any girl regardless of previous Girl Scout involvement.

Sudden Service

What is Sudden Service?

Sudden Service can be anything from a television or radio appearance to a flag ceremony, a troop sharing their story or marching in a parade. It all depends on who contacts Girl Scouts OSW in need of assistance.

Why was it created?

Often, requests are made to the Girl Scout council at the last minute and are frequently for a specific troop size or age group. GSOSW has established Sudden Service so that we can respond to these requests promptly. Individuals and troops that sign up will be called upon to assist with events with very little notice - possibly within 24 hours.

What do I need to participate?

All girls and adults must be registered Girl Scout members. Girls can be in a troop or participating in other pathways. Generally, all girls must have a sash or vest. Some activities may require a full uniform (i.e. white shirt and khaki pants). Participants will be chosen on a first come, first served basis.

Sign up by completing this short survey: https://girlscouts.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_5pfoU5pRlRZDY56 Questions? Contact Sarah Miller, Director of Communications at smiller@girlscoutsosw.org or (503) 977-6861

Adults: Don’t forget Trainings!

Many courses offered in the program guide require additional training before attending with your girls. Descriptions of the courses are listed below. We highly recommend that the courses be taken at least two months before you plan on attending the event. These courses have been designed to teach you how to prepare a group of girls for travel in a way that is safe, girl led and that they are learning by doing the planning for themselves. For more information on these and other trainings, please visit girlscoutsosw.org/adults/voltraining/training.

Adult Dev elopment Courses

Course Description

GS 101 Volunteer Essentials In Action (VEIA)

This course has been designed to convey the vision, values and goals of Girl Scouts This course offers vital information on the fundamentals of Girl Scouting while highlighting safety and group logistics.

Pre-requisite: GS 101 This course teaches adults about the Girl Scout program and topics include girl/adult partnership, program resources, and recognitions specific to each grade level.

Pre-requisite: VEIA This course is required if you: Want to leave the meeting space and/or stay overnight in a closed structure with running water, heat, toilets, lights, kitchen facilities and phone/cell coverage.

Grade Level Girls on the Move

Girl Scout Camping Basics

This course teaches adults to lead girls on new adventures. Go step-by-step through the thinking and planning involved in short field trips, daytime outdoor activities and indoor overnights.

Pre-requisite: VEIA This course is required if you: Want to take girls camping at an established site that is missing one or more of the above amenities.

Extended Trip

This course gives adults the skills to prepare their girls for outdoor cooking and management of an established campsite.

Pre-requisite: Girls on the Move This course is required if you: Want to take girls on a trip of three (3) nights or more.

This course helps adults get the girls involved in planning that big trip. Topics include safety, deciding destinations, transportation, budgeting and fundraising.

Pre-requisite: Girls on the Move.

A first-aider is an adult volunteer who has taken Girl Scout-approved first-aid and CPR training that includes specific instructions for child CPR. If, through the American Red Cross, National Safety Council, EMP America, or American Heart Association, you have a chance to be fully trained in first-aid and CPR, doing so may make your activity-planning go a little more smoothly. The Safety Activity Checkpoints always tell you when a first-aider needs to be present.

Activities can take place in a variety of locations, which is why first-aid requirements are based on the remoteness of the activity—as noted in the Safety Activity Checkpoints for that activity. For example, it’s possible to do a two-mile hike that has cell phone reception and service along the entire route and EMS (Emergency Medical System) is, at maximum, 15 minutes away at all times. It is also possible to hike more remotely with no cell phone service at a place where EMS would take more than 15 minutes to arrive. It’s important that you or another volunteer with your group has the necessary medical experience (including knowledge of evacuation techniques) to ensure group safety. The levels of first aid required for any activity take into account both how much danger is involved and how remote the area is from emergency medical services. *Although a WFR is not required, it is strongly recommended when traveling with groups in areas that are greater than 30 minutes from EMS.

29 Access to EMS

Minimum Level of First Aid Required

Less than 15 minutes 15-30 minutes More than 30 minutes

Level 1 Level 2 Wilderness First Aid (WFA) or Wilderness First Responder (WFR)*

The table to the left does reflect the limitations of some first-aid (level 2) trainings. It is important to understand the differences between an extended first-aid course, like the American Red Cross Sports Safety Training program, and a wilderness-rated course. Although standard and sport-safety first-aid training provides basic incident response, wilderness-rated courses include training on remote-assessment skills, as well as the emergency firstaid response, including evacuation techniques, to use when EMS is not readily available.

Note: For large events, there should be one first-aider (level 2) for every 200 participants. The following healthcare providers may also serve as first-aiders (level 1 or 2): physician, physician’s assistant, nurse practitioner, registered nurse, licensed practical nurse, paramedic, military medic, and emergency medical technician.

Important! For GSOSW a first aider (level 1) is not required for regular troop/group meetings but a first aider (level 1) will be required on trips more than six hours total time. Information on courses offered through the council and how to register are available on our website under adult training.

Civic engagement Of Girl Scout alumnae, 77 percent vote regularly, compared to 63 percent of non-alumnae.

Education Of Girl Scout Alumnae, 38 percent have attained collegedegrees, compared to 28 percent of non-alumnae.

Income/socioeconomic status Girl Scout alumnae report a significantly higher household income ($51,700) than non-alumnae ($42,200).

This is true of all alumnae across age/generations, race/ethnicity, socioeconomic class and engagement in other extracurricular activities.
