Why would an older girl want to be a Girl Scout?

Older girls are able to do lots of things that younger Girl Scouts can’t. Older girls can: plan and budget for their own trip, visit other cities, states and even countries and participate in amazing leadership and community service opportunities all over the world. Besides, there is no better way to get away from the stress of middle school, high school, SATs and college applications than a nice relaxing trip away with your troop, whether in a tent, a cabin, or aboard a luxury cruise ship!
