Welcome to the 2021-2022 Girl Scout Year!

Dear Friends of Girl Scouting, Welcome to the 2021-2022 Girl Scout Year! We are excited to share this year’s edition of Girl Scouts Heart of the Hudson’s Girl Experience Program Guide, your handy resource for everything GSHH has planned this year for your girls!

This year, we are thrilled to present an increased number of in-person programming. We are also continuing to offer virtual program options to make it easier for girls and their families to develop their ideal Girl Scout Experience.

Girl Scouts Heart of the Hudson remains committed to keeping all of our girls, volunteers, and their families safe and healthy while providing quality programming that helps to develop girls’ leadership skills and supports the four main pillars of Girl Scouts: s Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) s Outdoors s Life Skills s Entrepreneurship I am so happy to see the enthusiasm throughout the council for the upcoming year. We look forward to providing our girls the experiences which will prepare them for a lifetime of leadership, success and adventure!

We will be adding more programs throughout the year; check girlscoutshh.org/calendar for updates!
