Girl Scout Spotlight

Lady Baden-Powell

Olave Baden-Powell was the only person to ever hold the title of World Chief Guide. She helped her husband, Lord Robert Baden-Powell, and Girl Scout founder, Juliette Gordon Low, build the Scouting Movement and formed what became the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS).

World Thinking Day, which is celebrated by Girl Scouts and Girl Guides every year on February 22, celebrates and remembers the work of Lord and Lady Baden-Powell with a different theme each year. February 22 was also both of their birthdays.

Lady Baden-Powell Award

In 1959, Lady Baden-Powell visited Panama and created the Lady Baden-Powell Award to be earned by three groups: Las Muchachas Guias (Girl Guides of Panama), the International Girl Scouts of Panama and the Canal Zone Girl Scouts of the USA. Lady Baden-Powell conceived the idea for an International Friendship Award based upon the 5 "C's" - Communication, Community, Camping, Crafts and Culture. The award still bears her name today and is called the Lady Baden-Powell Award, exemplifying international friendship and encouraging Girl Guides and Girl Scouts to work together in the spirit of Girl Guiding and Girl Scouting.

Girl Scout Spotlight

U.S.

Madeleine Albright was an American diplomat and political scientist who served as the 64th United States Secretary of State from 1997 to 2001. She was the first woman to hold this post.

Madeline was a Girl Scout in Czechoslovakia before coming to the United States after World War II. She stayed involved with the organization as an adult, especially while her daughters were schoolage. In 2000, she helped introduce a new badge for Girl Scout Juniors called Global Awareness. The badge was developed by USAGSO and asked girls to learn about other countries and how they get along with one another.

Your Year of Travel

Are you ready for a new adventure?

Join the USAGSO Globetrotter program (formally Travel Troop) for an exciting trip- all designed by you! USAGSO hosts these trips 1-2 times per year, with previous destinations including Croatia and Amsterdam. Girls meet virtually for a few months, learning vital travel skills as they plan their activities, meals, transportation and more. These trips are open to Girl Scout Cadettes and older.

This spring’s Globetrotter trip will be held April 12-16, 2025. Girls will get to choose their destination: Northern Italy, Sicily, Lisbon or South France! More details will be announced on September 1, with an information session happening in September and registration opening in October.

Can’t attend in April 2025? No worries! Dates are determined around school breaks and announced about six months in advance, so keep an eye on The Globe and our online calendar for our upcoming trips. Questions? Reach out to Carolyn Hicks, Membership Man

Girl Scout Destinations are the ultimate adventure for individual Girl Scout Cadettes, Seniors and Ambassadors. Push past your comfort zone by applying for a trip on your own and make new friends from all over the world as you travel with new Girl Scout sisters. There’s a unique, life-changing experience just waiting for everyone! Limited financial assistance is available thanks to the annual D-Pass grant.
