Registration closes one business day prior to the program date.
Each panelist will explain their role, how their office functions, and a little bit about themselves and their background and education. Girls will also be taken on a virtual tour of Denver Mayor Hancock’s office. Girls will gain an understanding of what it means to work in local government as a woman and be able to envision themselves in one of these roles if they are interested in government as a career.
You can read biographies for each panelist here.
After the presentation, the women will answer questions submitted by Girl Scouts! Use the online registration form to submit your questions in advance.

Each individual participant should be registered so we can track participation. Please do not share the information on how to join with others who have not registered. The webinar will be recorded and posted to the GSCO YouTube Channel for girls to access in the future.
