Girl Scouts of Concharty Council

Mission Statement:The Concharty Council of Girl Scouts, Inc. provides services designed especially for girls. Needs are met through the unique troop or small group setting which allows positive role models to deliver quality programs in an individualized manner. In this setting, with the strength of additional special events or programs, we strive to equip all girls with decision-making skills, a sense of self-worth, and an excitement for life while emphasizing the importance of devotion to God, family, country and the well being of others.

Volunteer Opportunties:Leaders, trainers (less involved), plan and help in program events, assist with clerical duties, and help in updating website. Ways to Volunteer
