Celebrate Girl Scout Week
March 9 — March 15
Juliette Gordon Low
and her cousin registered
the first Girl Scout troop on March 12, 1912 —
Girl Scouting's birthday. Girl Scouts celebrate t
his event all week long!
Girl Scouts used to
establish seven days
of service during Girl Scout Week.
For example, during the 42nd celebration, in 1954:
Girl Scout Sunday and Girl Scout Sabbath (Saturday) was a
time girls attended services at their house of worship.
Monday was
designated Homemaking Day.
Tuesday was
Citizenship Day.
Wednesday was
Health and Safety Day.
Thursday was
International Friendship Day
Friday was Girl
Scout Birthday, as well as Arts and Crafts Day.
Saturday was
Outdoors Day.
Leader Day

Did you know...
Most
Girl Scout leaders are volunteers.
They
donate several hours of their time each week to do activities with groups of
girls.
They
take training to learn about the Girl Scout program.
They
meet with other leaders to plan events for troops in the area.
World Thinking Day
Join sister Girl Scouts and
Girl Guides around the world celebrating World Thinking Day on February 22,
2004
World Thinking Day celebrations
and activities can take many forms.
Thinking Day will be 78 years
old this year.
The idea for a special day
each year on which Girl Guides/Girl Scouts around the world think of each other
began at the 4th International Conference held in the USA in 1926.
The date chosen for Thinking Day was February 22, the birthday shared by the
Founder, Lord Baden-Powell, and the World Chief Guide, Olave, Lady Baden-Powell.
The Thinking Day Fund
began at the 7th
World Conference held in Poland in 1932. A delegate from Belgium suggested that
since birthdays usually meant presents — all Girl Guides/Girl Scouts could offer
a voluntary contribution along with their thoughts on Thinking Day as a way of
showing appreciation and friendship .
The suggestion caught on quickly and the Thinking Day Fund was
established for the promotion of Girl Guiding/Girl Scouting wherever the need
was greatest.
Check out the ideas and resources
by
clicking on the Thinking Symbol.
A Thinking Day symbol
was introduced in 1975. The World Trefoil in the center represents the World
Association. The arrows pointing towards the trefoil
represent action and direction. The circular design represents the world
of the Girl Guide/Girl Scout Movement.
