Girl Scouts was founded on March 12, 1912, in Savannah, Georgia by Juliette Gordon Low. The organization spread to Oklahoma, with the first troops beginning in 1917. That was also the year the very first Cookie Sale was held in Muskogee, Oklahoma! Girl Scouts of Eastern Oklahoma covers most of the eastern half of the state and serves over 10,000 girls and 3,000 adult volunteers. Girl Scouting builds girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place!

 

Girl Scouts is a program open to all girls ages 5-17 who pay the membership fee and make the Girl Scout Promise.

To help people at all times,
And to live by the Girl Scout Law.

I will do my best to be
honest and fair,

use resources wisely,
make the world a better place, and
be a sister to every Girl Scout.
