Girl Scouts of Greater Mississippi would like to bring important attention to the contributions of volunteers and their service provided free of charge to the communities they serve to face and overcome today’s greatest challenges. All of our volunteers’ sacrifices and their hard work do not go unnoticed. On behalf of our entire council, we are grateful for the heartfelt giving of yourselves in the service to the girls of this council. Thank you so much, volunteers.

The health and well-being of our members is our primary concern at Girl Scouts of Greater Mississippi.  We are in unprecedented times.  I’m sure you and your families are eager to get back to normal summer activities.  Many times, this includes Girl Scout meetings and trips.  You may be asking, “When will the girls be able to get together with their troops?”

From the city block to the suburban backyard to the backcountry, Girl Scouts has a long and storied history of getting girls outdoors.  With the launch of the Girl Scout Camp Adventures at Home Marketplace, members and nonmembers can access a one-stop shop to sign up for any of the hundreds of virtual summer camp sessions taking place nationwide. For the first time ever, girls can meet and participate together in virtual camp sessions offered by any of our 111 councils across the country.

When preparing for any activity with girls, always begin with the Safety Activity Checkpoints (SACs)!  We have updated the latest Safety Activity Checkpoints to improve safety for all our girls and volunteers.  Check out the new directives for each activity and show up prepared.
