show you how scouting will
help your daughter and YOU!
The Girl Scouts
There is much discussion in this
country today about the lack of
challenge to gifted children.
Not all of our daughters have
the ability to do many things
well but in a Girl Scout troop
there are many opportunities to
challenge the gifted and en
couragement is given to all girls
in a great number of situations
involving competition.
Give your pre-teen or teen
ager the opportunity to "Be Pre
pared" by enrolling her in a
Girl Scout troop now.
WHAT IS A GIRL SCOUT
TROOP? It is a club of girls of
about the same age a small
democratic working group in
which girls elect their own offi

do by doing opportunities for
service to others and ideals they
can understand and make their
own. The program is the same
for all troops but is developed
appropriately at each age level.
Brownie Scouts
The Brownie Scouts are the
youngest members of the Girl
Scout Organization.
Being a Brownie Scout means
something very special to each
girl in the troop and by being
a scout she is learning to be
come a happy resourceful per
son herself a responsible mem
ber of her group and growing
up into a useful citizen.
If you have a daughter in
grades 2 thru 4 at school en
roll her in a troop now when
she is at an age to understand
and accept people of other faiths
nationality backgrounds races
and customs and will be partak
ing in activities under adult lead
ers that girls her age like to
do.
Training Schedule
Most of us at some time or
other would like to help with
some program or project but feel
inadequate and hesitate to volun
teer because of lack of training
in that field. The Girl Scout train
ing schedule for the new year
will be published soon so don't
delay in offering to help—you'll
be glad you did!
