Girl Scout Week
Happy Birthday, Girl Scouts!
National Girl Scout Day, March 12, commemorates the day in 1912 when Juliette Gordon Low officially registered the organization’s first 18 members in Savannah, Georgia. Girl Scout Week is celebrated each March, starting with Girl Scout Sunday and ending with Girl Scout Sabbath on a Saturday, and it always includes Girl Scouts’ birthday, March 12.
This year, Girl Scout Week will be observed March 8-14. Celebrate our worldwide sisterhood with some of the games and activities listed below!

Craft: Girl Scout Law Wall Hanging
Make and decorate your own wall hanging as a reminder to live by the Girl Scout Law! You can see some creative examples on our Pinterest page. (Click the image below to download a larger version for printing.)
Cut up and glue each line of the law below onto individual craft sticks or pieces of cardstock, or practice penmanship by writing it out yourself! Connect the lines with strips of ribbon, yarn, string or cardstock. Decorate it however you like, with whatever you have! Finish it off with ribbon, yarn, or string for hanging.
Craft: Cookie SWAPS
“Hey, who ate my Thin Mint?” SWAPS Activity
All you need for this fun SWAPS project is dark brown felt or paper, a lighter colored paper, a pen or marker and a safety pin. Cut out a cookie shape and do another cut for the “bite.” Add a message written on a strip of paper and pin it all together. Try making other cookie flavor designs, too!

American Women Quarters: Juliette Gordon Low
Our very own trailblazer, Juliette Gordon Low, is making her mark on American currency with a special edition quarter as part of the American Women Quarters™ Program which celebrates the accomplishments and contributions made by women of the United States. On March 26, 2025, GSCCC members traveled to Washington, D.C. to attend the historic release celebration.
Women’s History Month
March is Women’s History Month, and while we think of history as something that happened a long time ago, the truth is that history is being made anew every day. Yes, your actions today write tomorrow’s history!
Remember that everything you need to create change is within you right now—you just need to let it shine.
“The work of today is the history of tomorrow, and we are its makers.” – Girl Scout Handbook, 1913
Girl Scout History
Blazing trails and redefining what’s possible for girls everywhere? Girl Scouts have been true to this since 1912. At a time when women in the United States couldn’t yet vote and were expected to stick to strict social norms, encouraging girls to embrace their unique strengths and create their own opportunities was game-changing. That small gathering of girls over 100 years ago ignited a movement across America where every girl could unlock her full potential, find lifelong friends, and make the world a better place.
