Discover Girl Scouts event to be held in Augusta March 30

SOUTH PORTLAND — Girl Scouts of Maine will hold a Discover Girl Scout event for potential members and volunteers in Augusta on March 30.

The Discover Girl Scouts events are designed to bring together girls from kindergarten through third grade and their caregivers, and allow them 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 that adults play, according to a news release from Girl Scouts of Maine.

The Augusta event will be at 6 p.m., Thursday, March 30, at Hussey School, 12 Gedney St.

“Girl Scouts helps girls develop their full potential,” says Joanne Crepeau, CEO of Girl Scouts of Maine in the news release. “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.”
