Virtual & In–Person Programs from Our Great Community Partners and Beyond We work with some pretty great Community Partners and many of them have gone the extra mile to offer content and programming to girls and families virtually and in–person.

Use this content to supplement the badge work you are doing, simply to learn a new skill, or to go places and do things you have never done. These Community Partners are continuing their support of Girl Scouts during these times; be sure to visit and thank them! You can find additional Community Partner Program Opportunities on our website at https:// www.girlscoutssoaz.org/en/events/program–providers.html What else can you find there? Everyone is working to keep girls engaged right now with out of the box programs, virtual tours, fun activities, new free patch programs and more! Be sure to check them out–who knows what great opportunities exist out there just for you.

General Information & Registration Help: customercare@girlscoutssoaz.org

When Pre–Registration is Required It’s very important to register in advance for programs and events, unless the description tells you it’s okay to drop in. We’re sorry, but we can’t accommodate drop–ins when advanced registration is required. *Be sure to check our website often for any updates , additions, or cancellations of programs. The website will always have the most updated information available. Prgrograms may need to be updated or cancelled to meet the changing state and federal guidelines.

For programs that require registration we will send a caregiver email a few days prior to the start of the event. This email will have the complete event details, location, attire and packing list. Please carefully read this email and ensure any necessary waivers, or forms are filled out prior to the event.

For girl–only events, GSSOAZ staff members are on hand, and we’re pros at making sure girls have appropriate supervision so that they can have fun and parents/ caregivers can relax!

Who Needs to be a Girl Scout? GIRLS: Naturally most of our events are for registered Girl Scout members in grades K–12, but you can almost always bring a friend. *Bring a Friend: friends who aren’t current Girl Scouts just need to add the Girl Scout membership fee to the event fee, and they can join in the fun for one or all Girl Scout events for the membership year!

Registration by Program Level Programs and Events are designed for specific program levels.

You will find a notation of those levels to the left of every event name. Program levels relate to school grades as follows: Daisies: Grades K–1 Juniors: Grades 4–5 Seniors: Grades 9–10

Brownies: Grades 2–3 Cadettes: Grades 6–8 Ambassadors: Grades 11–12

Destinations Cadettes and older, you can be whisked away to the far corners of the world where you will meet other remarkable go–getters, develop leadership skills, gain confidence, and enjoy valuable opportunities to take action. For a current list of destinations and applications, visit http://forgirls.girlscouts.org/travel/ take–a–trip/destinations/ For more information all about travel visit: https://www.girlscoutssoaz.org/en/events/our–program/ travel.html

What do the product programs fund?

Registration Information

Bronze. Silver. Gold.

The event description will tell you whether to register through GSSOAZ or through a Program Partner, and will also provide you with other important information like when and how to register.

These represent the highest honors a Girl Scout can earn.

All three awards give you the chance to do big things while supporting an issue you care about. You might plant a community garden at your school or inspire others to eat healthy foods for your Bronze, advocate for animal rights for your Silver, or build a career network that encourages girls to become scientists and engineers for your Gold. Whatever you choose, you’ll inspire others (and yourself). Also a given: as you earn one of Girl Scouts’ highest awards, you’ll change your corner of the world—and beyond. The possibilities are endless.

You can find all Highest Award Guidelines, current GSSOAZ reports and forms, and many helpful resources at https://www. girlscoutssoaz.org/en/events/our–program/badges–and– awards.html. You will find Highest Award Training information listed throughout the Program Guide program listings.

Register Online Online registration can be done by an individual or by the troop leader. 1. Go to: www.girlscoutssoaz.org/en/events/event– calendar.html. Locate the event you’d like to attend and click “Register Now.” You will be redirected to the online registration system. Follow the prompts to complete the process. List all girl and adult participants by the name used on their membership registration

Cancellation Policy For programs that are run by Program Partners, refund policies vary. Check with the partner before registering, if there is a concern.

Minimum Attendance Some things just aren’t the same with only a few people attending so we have participation minimums. We hate to disappoint, but if it turns out that too few participants have registered by the date registration closes, we’ll need to cancel the event. We’ll notify all registered participants, and make sure you get a full refund for events that GSSOAZ cancels.

With proceeds from the Girl Scout Fall Product and Cookie Programs, you may decide on local, national or international travel opportunities.

Troop travel With your troop’s proceeds from the Girl Scout Fall Product and Cookie Programs, your group may decide on local, national or international travel opportunities. Getaways If your troop is looking for all of the adventure of a trip, but wants to have the details taken care of for you, getaways are the answer!

To see all Troop Getaway opportunities visit http://forgirls. girlscouts.org/travel/ take–a–trip/getaways/.

Cancellation by Participant Email us 2 weeks before the event to get a refund if you’re not going to attend the event you registered for. We’ll refund all but a $5 cancellation fee per person. We’re sorry, but we can’t offer refunds for not showing up or if you arrive late or leave the event early.

2021-2022 Program Guide

Volunteers make our mission possible.

Stand Up for a Better Tomorrow. Be a Girl Scout Volunteer. Girl Scouts makes sure girls see and have opportunities to reach their potential—not just to ensure they’ll earn better grades, make better decisions, and lead happier lives (though we help with those things too!). And Girl Scout volunteers are the change–makers who make it all possible. They lead the sisterhood that provides comfort and inspiration in trying moments—giving girls the tools to solve problems and bounce back when faced with life’s challenges. In short, Girl Scout volunteers transform lives. Bonus?

The benefits of volunteering with Girl Scouts go both ways.

As a volunteer, you’ll:

Inclement Weather When bad weather threatens to squash too much of the fun, or we just don’t think it’s safe, GSSOAZ may decide that cancelling or re–scheduling the event is best. We’ll notify all registered participants, and make sure that you get a full refund for the events that GSSOAZ cancels. Be sure to check your email and voice mail for messages.

The Girl Scout Fall Product and Cookie Programs are two of the few youth–oriented programs in the country providing its participants the ability to decide how to direct the proceeds generated through their business activity. Some girls are using their proceeds for travel, big trips abroad, and local programs.

Some girls use their cookie credits to help fund their way to summer camp or earning their Highest Awards, and many give back to the community by funding their service projects.

Council–wide, most of our Girl Scout troops reinvest a portion of their proceeds in service projects that address specific community needs. Many of the troops also take part in Project Care & Share programs which make donations to local food pantries and to our military troops. All proceeds from the sale of Girl Scout Fall Product and Cookie Programs remain in the region and benefit girls in the community in which the products are sold. The local Girl Scout council uses product program revenue to supply essential services to troops and individual girls, providing program resources and support, training adult volunteers, conducting events, maintaining camps, and providing financial assistance to help make Girl Scouting possible for all girls

• Unleash the confidence that comes with being a role mode • Discover your leadership style as your girls discover theirs
