What Makes an Event Special?

We have lots of great events listed on our Events & Programs calendar. On this page, we provide more in-depth information about upcoming special events. What makes an event special? These are events which honor the spirit of the Girl Scout Movement or which have a major impact on our Council.

We hope that you will be able to participate! Supporting special events as an attendee, volunteer or sponsor helps us grow Girl Scouting in our community.
