Needs From: United Way of South Central Tennessee

Troop leaders serve as key role models to girls and are at the center of the Girl Scout movement. Time commitment can vary and the provided training will give you the necessary tools to be a successful troop leader.

FLEXIBILITY
As a leader, you have flexibility in helping the girls take ownership in their activities as a troop. You also have the flexibility to decide when, where and how often your troop will meet.

HAVING FUN
Throughout the year you’ll be able to take your troop to events and activities such as nature conservatories, self-esteem seminars, swimming at camp, ice-skating or the symphony.

RESOURCES
Service Unit meetings allow leaders to exchange ideas for troop activities and stay updated on the opportunities available in your community. Our Volunteer Resource Center has many items available for checkout to make your Girl Scouting activities easier. 

Event volunteers are those who seek the occasional Girl Scout experience. They may help on a monthly or yearly basis, or at other times when extra help is needed. Event volunteers may have a special skill or talent to share. Some include: financial planning, outdoor adventure, college planning, patch and badge earning, community service and many more.

L.E.A.D. is Girl Scouts of Middle Tennessee’s outreach to underserved girls in our community, rural and urban settings.

We’re looking for you… college women, graduate students and professionals to serve as leaders and mentors to underserved girls.

Girls involved will receive a membership to Girl Scouts and a uniform at no cost. They are given the opportunity to grow and gain quality leadership experiences, give service to the community and engage in outdoor activities.

Take a journey with us to not only enrich a girl’s life, but yours.
