Volunteers Shine Bright at Conference and Beyond
We enjoyed preparing for the new Girl Scout Year at our 2024 Volunteer Conference this past weekend! We are incredibly thankful for all of our amazing volunteers who use their talents to help girls find the courage to dream big and the confidence to shine bright! All who registered for the conference will receive an e-mail this week with access to the day’s materials and session recordings and also receive a special gift in the mail.
