Girl Scouts Heart of the Hudson Program Guide Choose Your Adventure


Dear Members and Friends of Girl Scouts Heart of the Hudson, Inc.,
Welcome to the 2022-2023 Girl Scout Year! As October 1st approaches, we are excited to share this year’s edition of Girl Scouts Heart of the Hudson’s Girl Experience Program Guide. Use this throughout the year as your handy resource for everything GSHH has planned this year for your girls!
We are excited to present an expanded number of in-person programming options which utilize more properties throughout the council in concert with virtual programming options to allow Girl Scouts and their families to design their ideal Girl Scout Experience.
Girl Scouts Heart of the Hudson, Inc. remains committed to providing exceptional girl-led programming that can be done as a troop, Service Unit, or individually for a girl and a family member. There’s no one way to be a Girl Scout and GSHH’s programming allows Girl Scouts to develop their leadership skills and support their interests along the four main pillars of Girl Scouting:
q Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) q Outdoors
q Life Skills q Entrepreneurship
I can not wait to see what incredible things our Girl Scouts throughout the council do this year. We look forward to providing Girl Scouts the experiences that will prepare them for a lifetime of leadership, success, and adventure!
Make sure to keep checking the program calendar on our website girlscoutshh.org as we will be adding programs throughout the year!
Yours in Girl Scouting, Helen Wronski Interim CEO, Girl Scouts Heart of the Hudson, Inc.
GSHH takes the guesswork out of planning activities! Girls can sign up for programs with their troop, as an individual who is part of a troop but wants to explore her own interests, or as an independently registered Girl Scout (Juliette).
The Girl Experience Program Guide contains:
q A list of the scheduled programs by date with age level indicators.
q Description of programs with locations, registration fees, and anything else your girls will need for their programs.
q A listing of webinars and resources for Girl Scouts working toward their Highest Awards (Gold, Silver, and Bronze)
