Scout Troop 194 Girls, founded in July 2023, has quickly become a thriving community of young girls who are learning to lead, serve, and grow.
With 9 members and 1 scout patrol, the troop is set to hit its next milestone of 12 members in the next 3 months. This will allow the troop to create a second patrol and provide even more opportunities for girls to learn and grow.
This year, the troop has already participated in 4 campouts and is planning its 5th for January. During campouts, scouts work on service hours, train for leadership skills, and learn a variety of scout skills.
Scouts have also been busy working on merit badges, including swimming, first aid, camping, cooking, and fitness. This year, the troop hopes to attend summer camp in Colorado and a high adventure camp for girls 14 and older in 2024 or 2025.
Through it all, the girls are learning valuable leadership, scout, and friendship building skills. Each month, the troop picks a scout skill to focus on. For October, the skill is first aid, and the scout law is trustworthiness.
“When people honor each other, there is a trust established that leads to synergy, interdependence, and deep respect. Both parties make decisions and choices based on what is right, what is best, what is valued most highly”. --Blaine Lee
