In an effort to provide you with the necessary tools and resources to offer special programs for the girls in your troop, we have created Program Take Out.

Make it a girl driven program by sharing this guide with them and have them pick the “bag” of their choice. Hope you enjoy this service and have a Fun-tastic Scouting Year!

At your service;
