Signature Events | GSHCC

Girl Scout Expo

 

The Girl Scout Expo is the perfect event to help both girls and their adults learn more about being a Girl Scout. Kick-off the new member year by enjoying a fun day of hands-on activities that will help your troop plan their year. This event hosts several community partner booths that will help your Girl Scout discover her passions for the Outdoors, STEM, Entrepreneurship, and Life Skills.

Mega Drop 

 

Mega Drop is a large-scale cookie distribution event that happens every February. At this event members and non-members come together with GSHCC staff to support troops and distribute Girl Scout cookies. Please note not all troops attend this event if their service holds a Mini Drop.

Outdoor Adventure Campout (OAC) 

 

Every Spring, Girl Scouts and their adults can hone their outdoor and camping skills, earn outdoor badges, and learn about nature & conservation efforts. It is a great introduction for participants who want to camp with their girls and enjoy several outdoor activities by registering for a trail that may include: Horseback riding, paddling, target sports, and natural sciences.

Award Ceremonies

 

The Girl Scout Gold Award, Girl Scout Silver Award, and the GSHCC Rose Award are among the greatest achievements a Girl Scout can earn. This ceremony, held typically in May or June, celebrates the accomplishments of our local Girl Scout Awardees.

Capitol Bridging

 

Capitol Bridging is an inspiring event in May where Girl Scouts can reflect on their past year and bridge to the next level in Girl Scouting. All ages of Girl Scouts will get to celebrate their achievements together and invite their family and friends to join in the festivities. Girl Scouts will connect with their sister Girl Scouts by walking across the Tower Bridge together and taking a moment to look back on their year as a Girl Scout and set goals for their future.

Vol Con & Annual Meeting

 

The Big Volunteer Conference (Vol Con), is a day-long event, in late summer/early fall, filled with workshops, inspiring speakers, and opportunities to network with other Girl Scout Volunteers and GSHCC staff.

The Annual Meeting, which happens during Vol Con, is an opportunity to look back at the membership year through annual financial information, highlights from the GSHCC Board of Directors, adult volunteer recognitions, and to celebrate our council's accomplishments.
