SOUTH PORTLAND — Girl Scouts of Maine will host Discover Girl Scout events for potential members and volunteers in Skowhegan and Mexico in the coming weeks.
The events 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 the organization.
A Skowhegan event will be held at 6 p.m., Tuesday, Nov. 28, at Margaret Chase Smith School, 40 Heselton St.
A Mexico event will be held at 6 p.m., Thursday, Nov. 30, at Meroby Elementary School, 21 Cross St.
“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.”
