TOLP Applications Open This Week

Are you an aspiring camp counselor or an older camper looking to take your leadership skills to the next level? Applications to our Teen Outdoor Leadership Program (TOLP) opens December 2 and closes January 31! We will also host a virtual TOLP Information Session on Thursday, January 9.

TOLP expands the Counselor-in-Training (CIT) program from a summer camp experience to a year-round leadership development program. In addition to the summer CIT program, TOLP offers the Teen Outdoor Leadership Summit in the spring and Teen Outdoor Leadership Conference in the fall to keep program members engaged and learning throughout the year!

Giving Tuesday Opportunities

Tomorrow is Giving Tuesday, and we ask that you consider supporting our council by donating to the One P2P Fund or One P2P: Camp Champions Campaign. By giving to one of these initiatives, you can help our members or our camp properties that were affected by Hurricane Helene.

If you have been financially impacted by Hurricane Helene, please complete our One P2P Fund Requests form so the committee can respond to your request.

Cookie Dough Expires Soon

Cookie Dough earned from the 2024 Girl Scout Cookie Program expires on December 13! Redeem Cookie Dough for program registrations (including summer camp) or at our council Girl Scout Shops! 

Not sure how to use your Cookie Dough? Our new Mystery Bags are full of delightful surprises inside! 

Use Your Voice as a Council Delegate

We have an opportunity for registered Girl Scouts ages 14 and up as well as Girl Scout adults to use their voices as a council delegate! Council delegate applications are due December 31 and members will be selected to represent their service unit at GSCP2P’s Annual Meeting on April 26 in Boone, NC and also at Board Forums throughout the year.

Patch Design Contest

Every year, Girl Scouts Carolinas Peaks to Piedmont partners with Goodwill for a Good Turn For Goodwill service project. Submit artwork for this year’s patch design contest by December 9! Learn more about the design contest, service project and scheduling behind-the-scenes tours on our blog.
