Girl Scouts of Maine to host events in central Maine

SOUTH PORTLAND — Girl Scouts of Maine will host free Sprouting Daisies and Discover Girl Scouts events in central Maine in the coming weeks.
Sprouting Daisies are for girls who are entering kindergarten or first grade and their families. Discover Girl Scout events are for girls from kindergarten through third grade and their caregivers.

Both events allow girls and their parents or caregivers to discover why Girl Scouting is important to the development of girls, how it relates to the success of young women today, and the important role adults play.
“Girl Scouts helps girls develop their full potential,” says Joanne Crepeau, CEO of Girl Scouts of Maine. “When a girl becomes a Girl Scout, she grows into a young woman who is self-confident, strong and compassionate. She learns how to build and maintain healthy relationships. She becomes more aware of the world around her and uses her skills and talents to make her world a better place.”
