With cold temperatures and Christmas lights, it may feel like summer is ages away, but it'll be here before you know it! That's why we are opening registration for our Summer Resident Camp 2023 on Jan. 9.
Spots fill up quickly so it’s best to register early. If you register by Feb. 10, you’ll receive the Early Bird discount of $50 off your chosen program.
We'll be updating our website with the 2023 program offerings and dates over the next few weeks so keep checking back!

Girl Scouts of Southern Appalachians invites all Girl Scouts and friends to join for our third annual Reach for the Peaks! RFTP is an event where participants can hike on their terms AND support their local Girl Scouts.
Participants can hike the highest peaks or just around their neighborhood, accomplish 3.12 (our birthday!) miles, or set their own distance goal. Hikers can hike individually or go as a group.
Our 2023 Reach for the Peaks will take place over two weeks, March 4-19. We'll share more details as the time approaches, so keep an eye on your inbox and on our social media channels.

Cadettes, Seniors, or Ambassadors who are working on a community service, take action project, or High Award can apply for a Joyce Maienschein Leadership Grant to help make their dream a reality. Not only can the girls receive funding for up to $500, but they gain life skills like writing, budgeting, organization, and teamwork. It's a win-win!

This Knoxville-area troop works with a local church during Veterans Day to help homeless veterans that are at The Steps House; this year they needed hygiene supplies. The girls took some profits from selling cookies last year and put together twenty hygiene kits. They also made thank you cards and decorated the bags they packed the hygiene items in.
Share your stories and photos with us at socialmedia@girlscoutcsa.org. Please include a brief description (including date/location) of the event and/or project depicted, as well as the troop number(s).
