Support Local Girl Scout Recruitment - 3 Ways to Win!

Updated: Aug 8



Your troop or Service Unit is set up, your volunteers are ready to deliver amazing Girl Scout programming, you’ve crossed your T’s and dotted your I’s – now what? How do you find the soon-to-be Girl Scouts that are going to make this your best Girl Scout year yet? That’s where recruitment comes in!


Girl Scouts of Colorado have dedicated Membership Recruitment staff to help promote Girl Scouts throughout our statewide council, but we need your help to reach the girls in your community by meeting them where they are at.


Girls everywhere have been waiting for someone to invite them to be part of our organization. In addition to girls, you’re extending the invitation to adults that will make a commitment to girls in their community- just like you have! You know the adventures don’t stop with girls at Girl Scouts. We hear often how our volunteers’ lives are changed by the experiences they have supporting a troop.


We have many ways you can support local recruitment efforts in your community.
