Greetings!

A recent publication from the Girl Scout Research Institute, How Girl Scouting Benefits Girls, confirms what we already know: that girls who participate in Girl Scout programming develop a positive sense of self, make the world a better place by giving back to the community, display civic engagement, and obtain a higher education level. Girl Scouts have more leadership experiences than other girls and boys and Girl Scouts are more likely to consider themselves leaders. I encourage you to obtain this publication and share the information with others to open doors in the community and build membership, but most importantly, help girls. I am proud of the council’s efforts to empower girls to discover, connect and take action through quality programming led by competent, inspirational mentors; the staff and volunteers.

Please browse our 2014 Fall Program and Adult Learning Guide. Tell a friend, co-worker, classmate or family member about the many adventures and learning experiences available through Girl Scouts. Girl Scouts is, as it always has been, the organization best positioned to offer girls the tools needed to be successful leaders. We know that girls gain specific knowledge skills, behaviors, attitudes and values in Girl Scouting. Girl Scout experiences are, as much as possible, girl led, facilitating experiential and cooperative learning. Get involved by visiting girlscoutsindiana.org and register for events.

Thank you for yourcommitment to Girl Scouts of Central Indiana. I look forward to a home of our own, the Leadership and Learning Center, that will be the center of programs and training activities for girls and adults for years to come!

Warmest regards,

Deborah Hearn SmithChief Executive Officer

What can a girl do?Beginning October 1, 2014:

• This is a way for troops to earn money while promoting reading, goal setting, financial awareness, and communication skills. Troops earn 10 percent of gross sales to fund troop activities.

• Girls can take orders for magazines, delicious nut products, candy, and photo keepsake items.

• It’s easy to earn troop funds when girls go online to learn about Internet safety and send emails to friends and family offering them a wide variety of magazines to purchase online. No hassle, no product to handle, nothing to deliver! Troops earn $2 per girl for participation in online program. Emails will also connect customers to the online nut store.

• Customers can now purchase nut/candy items to help feed the hungry right here in central Indiana. Donations of $5 will purchase a nut/candy item to be donated to food pantries.

• Troops can help support their council.

• Girls earn awesome recognitions!

Contact your service unit manager or the Product Sales Department office at 877.474.2249 to find out when materials will be available in your area!

Safety and Girl ScoutsEvery adult in Girl Scouting is responsible for the physical and emotional safety of girls. This is dem-onstrated by following the 12 Girl Scout Safety Guidelines on the next page at all times and by fol-lowing the Girl Scout Safety Activity Checkpoints guidelines when engaging in activities with girls. These resources can be found on our website.

Safety Activity Checkpoints Safety Activity Checkpoints are in-depth safety guidelines that adult volunteers use for Girl Scout activities, ranging from canoeing to surfing to selling cookies. Girls can also use these checkpoints to ready their group for a girl-led activity. When preparing for any activity with girls, always begin with the Safety Activity Checkpoints written specifically for that particular activity. Each Safety Activity Checkpoint offers information such as where to do the activity, how to include girls with disabilities, where to find basic and specialized gear required for the activity, how to prepare yourselves in advance, and what specific steps to follow on the day of the activity. If Safety Activity Checkpoints do not exist for an activity, check with the council program department as some activities are allowed only with written council pre-approval, only for girls 12, and over and some activities are off-limits completely. Safety Activity Checkpoints can be found on our website.


Safety and Girl Scout Safety Activity Checkpoints1. Follow the Safety Activity Checkpoints. Instructions for staying safe while participating in activities are detailed in the Safety Activity Checkpoints. Read the checkpoints, follow them, and share them with other volunteers, parents, and girls (as grade-level appropriate) before engaging in activities with girls. These are found at girlscoutsindiana.org in the volunteer section of our website.

2. Arrange for proper adult supervision of girls. Your group must have at least two unrelated, approved adult volunteers present at all times, plus additional adult volunteers as necessary, depending on the size of the group and the ages and abilities of girls. Adult volunteers must be at least 18 years old and must be screened by the council before volunteering. One lead volunteer in every group must be female.

3. Get parent/guardian permission. When an activity takes place that is outside the normal time and place, advise each parent/guardian of the details of the activity and obtain permission for girls to participate.

4. Report abuse. Sexual advances, improper touching, and sexual activity of any kind with girl members are forbidden. Physical, verbal, and emotional abuse of girls is also forbidden. Report any suspected abuse or neglect to the Indiana Child Abuse and Neglect Hotline at 800.800.5556, and contact Meg Booth, Director of Volunteer Services, at 317.924.6839 to alert the council that you have made the call. Under Indiana law, each citizen of Indiana is considered a “mandated reporter” and State law requires the Department of Child Services to protect the identity of the reporter.

5. Be prepared for emergencies. Work with girls and other adults to establish and practice procedures for emergencies related to weather, fire, lost girls/adults, and site security. Always keep handy a well-stocked first-aid kit, girl health histories, and contact information for girls’ families.

6. Travel safely. When transporting girls to planned Girl Scout field trips and other activities that are outside the normal time and place, every driver must be an approved adult volunteer and have a good driving record, a valid license, and a registered/insured vehicle. Insist that everyone is in a legal seat and wears her seat belt at all times, and adhere to state laws regarding booster seats and requirements for children in rear seats.

7. Ensure safe overnight outings. Prepare girls to be away from home by involving them in planning, so they know what to expect. Avoid having men sleep in the same space as girls and women. During family or parent-daughter overnights, one family unit may sleep in the same sleeping quarters in program areas. When parents are staffing events, daughters should remain in quarters with other girls rather than in staff areas.

8. Role-model the right behavior. Never use illegal drugs. Don’t consume alcohol, smoke, or use foul language in the presence of girls. Do not carry ammunition or firearms in the presence of girls unless given special permission by Girl Scouts of Central Indiana council for group marksmanship activities.

9. Create an emotionally safe space. Adults are responsible for making Girl Scouting a place where girls are as safe emotionally as they are physically. Protect the emotional safety of girls by creating a team agreement and coaching girls to honor it. Agreements typically encourage behaviors like respecting a diversity of feelings and opinions; resolving conflicts constructively; and avoiding physical and verbal bullying, clique behavior, and discrimination.

10. Ensure that no girl is treated differently. Girl Scouts welcome all members, regardless of race, ethnicity, background, disability, family structure, religious beliefs, and socioeconomic status. When scheduling, helping plan, and carrying out activities, carefully consider the needs of all girls involved, including school schedules, family needs, financial constraints, religious holidays, and the accessibility of appropriate transportation and meeting places.

11. Promote online safety. Instruct girls never to put their full names or contact information online, engage in virtual conversation with strangers, or arrange in-person meetings with online contacts. On group websites, publish girls’ first names only and never divulge their contact information. Teach girls the Girl Scout Online Safety Pledge (at www.girlscouts.org/help/Internet_safety_pledge.asp) and have them commit to it.

12. Keep girls safe during money-earning. Girl Scout cookies and other council-sponsored product sales are an integral part of the program. During Girl Scout Product Programs, you are responsible for the safety of girls, money, and products. In addition, a wide variety of organizations, causes, and fundraisers may appeal to Girl Scouts to be their labor force. When representing Girl Scouts, girls cannot participate in money-earning activities that represent partisan politics or that are not Girl Scout–approved product sales and efforts.

Adult recognitionIt’s about the girls! The focus of adult recognition awards is impact on girls, the council, and the Girl Scout Movement. We encourage nominations from girls, parents, volunteers, and staff. Volunteer recognition can be a powerful tool for retaining invaluable women and men who volunteer for Girl Scouts. When volunteers know their time and energy are appreciated and that they are valued by Girl Scouts, they commit themselves to the organization. They want to know that their service is helping the greater good-that together we make a difference in girls' lives and, through our mission, make a difference in the world.

GSUSA research says recognition from troops, individual girls, or a parent is most meaningful. Knowing that your peers recognize your efforts is meaningful as well. Recognition can be formal or informal.

Formal Adult Recognition AwardsThe nomination should be results oriented, measurable, and include real impact stories. Formal awards are presented annually and giv-en to an individual or group of volunteers. Find nomination forms, award criteria guidelines and other helpful information on our website at girlscoutsindiana.org.

Girl Scouts of the USA recognitions awarded at the council level A nomination form is completed and submitted to the director of volunteer services by February 1. The nominations are reviewed by the council’s recognition committee and the committee approves or denies the nomination. The board of directors confirms the approved nominations.

Helpful definitions

MissionGirl Scouting builds girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place.

VisionGirl Scouts strives to be the premier leadership organization for girls and experts on their growth and development.

GoalsEach local council sets their own goals based on national goals, initiatives, and direction. Each service unit within Girl Scouts of Central Indiana has annual membership girl recruitment goals which are communicated to the service unit manager and/or service team through the membership development manager assigned to the service unit. In addition, the service unit manager and/or service team is responsible for setting other additional goals, for example, planning a specific number of events and activities to recruit a specific number of girls. The membership development manager and/or service unit manager can help you find out the goals.

Mission DeliveryThriving mission delivery grows and sustains membership through volunteer delivery of the GSLE using the national portfolio.

The Girl Scout Leadership Experience-GSLEThe three keys to leadership: girls discover themselves and their values; connect with others; and take action to make the world a better place. At Girl Scouts, everything centers around the girl: activities are girl-led, which gives girls the opportunity to learn by doing in a cooperative learning environment.

National Girl Scout Program PortfolioThe National Girl Scout Program Portfolio consists of The Girl’s Guide to Girl Scouting, the National Leadership Journeys and Skill Building Badge Sets.

The Girl’s Guide to Girl ScoutingGirls at every grade-level have a Girl’s Guide to Girl Scouting. Through fun activities, girls can earn a variety of badges to build the skills and gain the confidence they’ll use to change the world. They can even develop and complete activities to make their own badge. All badges are called National Proficiency Badges and are grouped in the categories: Legacy, Financial Literacy, Cookie Business, Skill-Building, and Make Your Own. Daisies continue to earn Petals, as well as four new Leaves.

National Leadership Program through Journeys At the core of the GSLE are national leadership journeys, fun and challenging experiences grouped around a theme and spread over a series of sessions. Each journey has all the important components of the GSLE sewn right in. Leadership journeys ensure that every Girl Scout in every pathway receives a consistent, high-quality experience that engages girls in realizing specific leadership benefits. Each journey offers opportunities to enjoy the longstanding traditions of Girl Scouting, from ceremonies and songs to earning awards and related skill badges. So, to guide girls on a great journey, all you need is enthusiasm and a sense of adventure.

Skill Building Badge SetsThe Skill-Building Badge Activity Sets offer girls the opportunity to earn additional badges throughout their Leadership Journeys. These activities are designed to turn the experiences and inspiration of the Journeys into tangible skills that girls can use throughout their lives.
