Nobody hands you the instruction manual for adulthood... so we're creating one together.

Join us for Adulting 101: From Surviving to Thriving, a one-of-a-kind Volunteer Summit designed to help you build practical life skills, strengthen your leadership, and reconnect with the joy of being part of Girl Scouts.

This isn't your typical day of training.

It's a choose-your-own-adventure experience where you decide what you want to learn, try, create, and experience. Whether you're looking to master everyday life skills, become a stronger troop leader, or simply spend a day with people who "get it," you'll leave feeling more confident, capable, and connected.
