Mission
Statement:
Girl Scouting builds
girls of courage,
confidence, and
character, who
make the world a
better place.
What Is Girl
Scouting?
According to www.
girlscouts.org, most
girls join a local
troop or group for
fun and friendship,
but they also find out
about building
character and self-
esteem and serving
their communities—
the core qualities of
Girl Scouting.

In Girl Scouts, girls
find a safe place to
grow and share new
experiences, learn
to relate to others,
develop values, and
contribute to society.
When you join Girl Scouting, we'll help you find a troop that meets your needs and
schedule.   Girl Scouting is broken down into the following levels:

  • Daisy Girl Scouts (Ages 5-6 or Grade K) Daisy Girl Scouts meet in small
    groups with two or more leaders to learn about the world around them.  They
    take local trips, learn about science and nature, make crafts and explore their
    community.   Daisy Girl Scouts earn learning petals and receive participation
    patches. The Indian Valley Service Unit has Daisy Girl Scout troops in both
    Harleysville and Souderton/Telford.

  • Brownie Girl Scouts (Ages 6-8 or Grades 1-3)  Brownie Girl Scouts meet in
    troops and earn Try Its badges by trying new things.  Brownie Girl Scouts
    further explore their community by participating in service projects, camping,
    and selling Girl Scout cookies.  Troops have at least two leaders and usually
    meet weekly or bi-weekly.  Brownie Girl Scout troops meet in Souderton,
    Telford, and Harleysville.

  • Junior Girl Scouts (Ages 8-11 or Grades 4-6) Junior Girl Scouts further their
    horizons by taking charge of their troop.  Girls are empowered with leadership
    training and more complex experiences.  Junior Girl Scouts are eligible to earn
    specific proficiency badges, as well as the Junior Girl Scout Bronze Award.  
    Troops usually use the patrol structure and meet with two leaders on a weekly
    or bi-weekly basis. The Indian Valley Service has Junior Girl Scout troops
    meeting in Harleysville, Souderton, and Telford.

  • Girl Scouts 11-17  For Older Girl Scouts, the opportunities are almost
    limitless.  From traveling abroad to fully embracing  their leadership skills, the
    program for Older Girl Scouts is designed to fit the needs and busy schedules
    of today's teenager. Older Girl Scouts have the opportunity to work on either
    Interest Project Patches or Studio 2B charms and can earn recognitions such
    as the Girl Scout Silver Award or the Girl Scout Gold Award, the highest and
    most esteemed honor a Girl Scout can receive.  Older Girl Scouts serve as
    role models for younger girls, while creating lifelong memories and valuable
    experiences within their troops.  Each Older Girl Scout troop has at least two
    leader/mentors and meeting schedules vary by troop. There are currently five
    Older Girl Scout troops in the Souderton School District, meeting in both
    Harleysville and Souderton/Telford.
