2020-2021
Annual Report October 1, 2020 – September 30, 2021
Mission
Girl Scouting builds girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place.
The Girl Scout Promise
On my honor, I will try: To serve God* and my country, To help people at all times, And to live by the Girl Scout Law.
The Girl Scout Law
I will do my best to be honest and fair, friendly and helpful, considerate and caring, courageous and strong, and responsible for what I say and do, and to respect myself and others, respect authority, use resources wisely, make the world a better place, and be a sister to every Girl Scout.
*Girl Scouts of Utah makes no attempt to define or interpret the word “God” in the Girl Scout Promise. It looks to individual members to establish for themselves the nature of their spiritual beliefs. When making the Girl Scout Promise, individuals may substitute wording appropriate to their own spiritual beliefs for the word “God.”

Dear Girl Scouts of Utah members and supporters, As we look over the past membership year, many accomplishments rise to the top. While 2021 continued to bring challenges due to the ongoing pandemic, Girl Scouts of Utah moved closer toward normalcy and getting back to serving girls and increasing our impact. Although in a limited capacity, and with many COVID-19 restrictions in place, we were delighted to once again be able to open our summer camps. Reminded of the importance of girls connecting in person, we are looking forward to welcoming more Girl Scouts to camp this coming summer. While we continued to offer online programs due to the ongoing pandemic, 64% of our programs were held in-person. These include programs in outdoors, STEM, life skills, and entrepreneurship. We are grateful we have been able to not only keep the council on sound financial footing through these uncertain times but also allocate additional resources to strengthen our financial health. In May of 2021, following a careful review of the council’s resources, and at the recommendation of the Finance & Investment Committee, the Board of Directors voted to allocate $1.5M to make an additional principal payment on the Cloud Rim loan, thereby cutting the loan balance nearly in half. Creating and maintaining an inclusive environment for all of our members continues to be a central focus for our council. We have made great strides in the areas of diversity, equity, inclusion, and racial justice. We strive to view all of the work we do through a lens of diversity and keep the conversation going on how and where we can improve inclusivity in our work. We finished membership year 2021 with a great girl retention rate of 63.4%. This proves something that we have long known; that we have incredible volunteers who are deeply dedicated to serving girls and continuing the legacy of Girl Scouting. Without our volunteers, we cannot serve girls – we are tremendously grateful for their work. Although this past year has been challenging, Girl Scouts of Utah is eagerly looking forward. We have a crucial role to play in giving girls the spaces and connections to recover from the uncertainty and disruption the pandemic brought into their lives. We draw a great deal of purpose through this work and are looking forward to serving girls. Sincerely,
Lisa Hardin-Reynolds Chief Executive Officer
Leslie Egan Board Chair

Per FY21 Board Dashboard ‐ September 30, 2021 New Girls Renewed Girls GS Outreach
Our Members Girl Scouts of Utah anticipated and budgeted for a flat membership goal over the previous year. However, due to the pandemic, our council experienced a 13% decrease in overall girl membership. Our team adjusted, continuing virtual fall recruitments, working with community partners, and running other non-traditional campaigns for reaching new girls. Our largest decline was in new girls, which saw a 16% decrease from the previous year, followed by a renewed girl decrease of 14%.

STEM Science, technology, engineering, and math programming helps girls become better problem-solvers and critical thinkers. Through virtual and inperson program delivery, girls explored astronomy, robotics, at-home science experiments, and more. On the FIRST Lego League teams, girls worked together to design and build robots. Girls discovered the complexities of the night sky through Astronomy Explorers and the new Dark Skies patch program. With STEM activities, girls learn how STEM can help them make the world a better place and be a career option.

Girl Scouts at Home Virtual programs and take-home boxes of badge work ensured our Girl Scouts could enjoy Girl Scout programming at a time when it was unsafe to meet in person. The Badge in a Box program contained supplies and curriculum for members to earn a badge from home. This model was adapted to deliver a New Year’s Eve Bash in a box as well. Journey in 9 Weeks and Badge Frenzy were virtual troop meetings where girls worked on badges and Journeys. Camp-In Kickoff and Winter Camping programs brought the outdoors to our members with virtual camp fun while the girls camped out at home.

Life Skills Girl Scout life skills programming enables girls to develop a stronger sense of self, display more positive values, and gain the skills to overcome obstacles. Programs and badge work in this area introduce girls to things like healthy living, protecting our environment, exploring careers, and communication skills. At Camp Fury, Girl Scout Cadettes, Seniors, and Ambassadors learned about careers in public safety with hands-on experiences led by first responders. Girls learned to advocate for themselves and others with Girl Empowered, and they practiced environmental stewardship at Antelope Island and Snow Canyon with Girl Scouts Love State Parks.

Outdoor experiences help Girl Scouts build confidence and leadership skills as they embark on new adventures. From traditional resident camp to programs with troops, service units, and families, campers enjoyed a variety of outdoor activities. Programs at Camp Cloud Rim and Trefoil Ranch include activities like archery, climbing, horseback riding, waterfront activities, art, and hiking. Programs like Girl Scouts Love State Parks and Family Snowshoe Adventure offered fun, familyfriendly outdoor experiences outside traditional camp activities.

“We got to be creative and were given freedom and encouragement to pursue new things. This was a hard experience but also lots of fun.” – Girl Scout Camper
In preparation for the summer 2021 camp season, the Outdoor Program Team reviewed the American Camp Association’s guidance and worked closely with Girl Scouts of Utah’s COVID Task Force to adapt all areas of camp to ensure camper and staff safety. A communicable disease plan and COVID guidance for camp was added to the website for families and campers to review. Through screening protocols, a handful of positive COVID cases were identified before they arrived at camp, preventing a potential outbreak. To our knowledge, we had no confirmed positive COVID cases that came out of camp. During a global pandemic, we were able to safely bring our campers back to the camp experience they love.

Entrepreneurship
After the 2020 Cookie Program was cut short due to COVID-19, girls were ready to get out in 2021 and smash their cookie goals. Equipped with masks, hand sanitizer, shields for cookie booths, and COVID guidance specific to the Cookie Program, Girl Scouts were prepared to participate safely in the 2021 Cookie Program. Cookie booths were limited to two Girl Scouts and two adults to allow for some physical distancing. Additionally, numerous resources were provided to support our cookie entrepreneurs as they adapted and found innovative new ways to sell, like handheld signs for drive-thru cookie booths and tips for contactless delivery and payment.

Cookie customers were glad to have Girl Scout Cookies, a small bit of normalcy during the upheaval and uncertainty of the pandemic. With door hangers, menu boards, and yard signs, Girl Scouts could market their cookie site and take orders without being in close contact with customers. To further support our entrepreneurs during an unusual cookie sale, cookie booths were extended by a week and customers received free shipping for online orders of at least six boxes of cookies.

With Girl Scouts entrepreneurship programs, girls develop a valuable work ethic, learn to set and achieve realistic goals, and build stronger interpersonal relationships. Branding You and Cookieology taught girls how to market and sell their small business selling Girl Scout Cookies. At the Masquerade Virtual Cookie Rally, cookie entrepreneurs enjoyed a program that combined fun with practical cookie selling knowledge. Masked singers sang songs about the cookie varieties while the girls prepared for the upcoming cookie season.
Highest Awards & Volunteer Recognition On Saturday, November 13, 2021, we rolled out the red carpet to honor our six Gold Award Girl Scouts, 43 Silver Award Girl Scouts, and 30 adult award honorees at the annual Recognition of Excellence Awards Ceremony. Service units recognized the 113 Bronze Award Girl Scouts with ceremonies of their own. Award recipients walked the red carpet for a photo opp and were recognized in an award ceremony with inspiring remarks by GSU Board Chair Leslie Egan and CEO Lisa Hardin-Reynolds. The event featured a panel discussion with our Gold Award Girl Scouts and a heartfelt impromptu speech by Alida Hannum, who was recognized for 80 years of membership. We were thrilled to honor our Highest Award Girl Scouts and adult award recipients in person!
Gold Award Girl Scouts For links to videos, PDFs, and social media pages related to each project, visit the Gold Award Girl Scouts page of our website.
Jade Valdez Jade’s project “Expanding Athletic Opportunities for Girls” aimed to provide the same opportunities she enjoyed growing up while playing softball to other young girls. Softball provided Jade with the opportunity to attend college and gifted her with courage, friendships, and lifelong lessons. Wanting to share the sport with other girls and provide the needed recognition and equal support, Jade hosted clinics, created skills and recruitment videos, presented a petition to city council leaders, held a used equipment drive, and promoted recreation leagues through social media and local newspaper. In the end, Jade learned how big her voice could be to evoke change in her community and beyond.

Jessie noticed that many people purchase pets, chicks specifically, when they are young and cute but don’t understand the care an adult chicken will need. Fueled by her love of animals, she partnered with the Washington County 4H to have a booth about chickens in the Animal Education Barn at the Washington County Fair in April 2021. She was able to talk with over 8,000 people over the 4-day fair. In addition, she created videos to discuss raising and caring for chicks as they are young and grow to full size. The videos are available on her website, YouTube, and Instagram. Jessie learned leadership and organization skills coordinating volunteers to assist her at her booth and to get her materials prepared, and she became more comfortable talking with people she doesn’t know.
Kayla Madsen Kayla combined her love of children and passion for healthcare in her Gold Award project, working with the University of Utah Health Hospital to create a program to help the pediatric patients feel more at ease and educated about their surgeries. Kayla sewed 100 surgery friend dolls with their own hospital gowns for pediatric patients to decorate, hold and love, and have their health care providers demonstrate what procedures the child will undergo. She also created instructions for the hospital to give to future volunteers to continue to create surgery friend dolls so future pediatric patients will benefit from this program.
Mikayla Torrey Mikayla’s project “Mask Up Everyone” focused on making information accessible to everyone regarding how to keep themselves and others safe and healthy from COVID-19, including proper mask wearing. In addition to making masks, Mikayla gathered information on the importance of wearing a mask, complete with a mask pattern, proper size/fit, and materials. According to her research, the best fitting and effective handmade mask is the Olson mask. The masks produced as part of her project were donated to the Navajo Nation in February 2021. Through her Gold Award project, Mikayla learned many new techniques in sewing, communication, and goal setting. She also learned in the research process not only about masks but also myths on how COVID is spread.

Shaylee Bradbury Shaylee focused her project on organ donor awareness because of the many people in her family affected by kidney disease and the numerous organ transplant stories she’s heard as a result. Her project aimed to raise awareness about the importance of being an organ donor, including how it takes only five minutes to sign up on your driver’s license and how being a donor could save up to 8 lives. Shaylee learned the larger scope of the impact of live organ donation beyond her family, meeting many people and hearing their stories.
Tamma Bahr Tamma started her Gold Award project by creating a video and flyer about dalmatian toadflax, an invasive species. She mapped toadflax in the Timpanogos wilderness area and delivered the data to the Forest Service. With this data in mind, Tamma organized three weed pulls with volunteers and posted her flyer at various trailheads. Through this, she learned how to create educational materials, work with others, and set deadlines. Tamma chose this project because she loves the outdoors and wants to help improve it.

Fundraising Camp is a fundamental experience for girls, and we are so grateful for our donors who make that experience possible for all girls, regardless of their background or socioeconomic status. In 2021, we held two events to support our camps and outdoor programming.
Summer Solstice Art Auction & Fundraiser On June 21, 2021, Girl Scouts of Utah held its first in-person fundraising event in over a year at One O Eight Bistro. The Summer Solstice Art Auction & Fundraiser featured 11 pieces of Girl Scout art for auction and celebrated the start of summer and the return of in-person Girl Scout camp. Over $4,500 was raised in support of Girl Scout camps!

Camping for a Cause Virtual Silent Auction
Camping for a Cause, the annual campout at Camp Cloud Rim, pivoted from a day camp to an online auction in light of COVID-19 concerns and new safety guidance from the state and CDC. Held August 12-13, 2021, the auction featured 43 packages up for bid, valued at over $10,000 in in-kind donations. Additionally, swag bags and commemorative Girl Scout bundles were available for purchase. In the end, we raised over $17,000 dollars for outdoor programming!
Utah Day of the Girl Utah Day of the Girl brings business and community leaders together to advance opportunities for girls and support the work of Girl Scouts of Utah. It’s an opportunity for attendees to mentor high-school-age Girl Scouts and young alums. The luncheon planned for October 2021 was canceled due to safety concerns around COVID. To ensure we deliver the program as intended for our Girl Scouts and properly honor our Girl Champions, the luncheon was rescheduled for October 7, 2022. Pictured below are our honorees: Dr. Tami Goetz (STEM), Lavanya Mahate (Entrepreneurship), Dr. Tiana Rogers (Life Skills), and Wendy Fisher (Outdoors). The event will feature emcee Liz Adeola and remarks from Rebecca Chavez-Houck.

In Remembrance Betty Rider (1932-2021) Betty Rider was a Girl Scout for life. She first joined Girl Scouts in 1942 when she moved to Elko, Nevada, so she could make new friends. As a Brownie, she sewed fabric squares together to make lap robes for veterans, and as an Intermediate, she canvassed neighborhoods collecting flattened tin cans. As an adult, Betty served in almost every volunteer position the council had to offer: Board President, Board Treasurer, Field Vice President, Council Cookie Chair, Council Trainer, and more. Most recently she served on the Girl Scouts of Utah Heritage and Scholarship committees. Betty was the first recipient of the council’s Freddie Award, which recognizes an adult volunteer who has delivered outstanding service to Girl Scouts of Utah. She always talked about her awards with humility, as if she felt like she should be rewarding the council for all the great experiences she had enjoyed. After more than 70 years as an active Girl Scout, Betty made incredible contributions to Girl Scouting, including a lasting legacy spanning five generations of Girl Scouts that followed in her footsteps. She expressed sincere feelings about having Girl Scouting influence your life, saying, “I continue to live by the Girl Scout Promise and Law. I make new friends and keep the old.”
Joann Cwik (1931-2021) Joann Cwik was actively involved in Girl Scouting as a lifelong volunteer with more than 50 years with Girl Scouts of Utah. During those years, she served in many roles, including Girl Scout troop leader and Girl Scout troop leader trainer. She is remembered by her family for her contagious laugh and unconditional love and acceptance of everyone.
