How to Join Girl Scouts

You can find more information about joining and sign up on the GSEMA website. If you'd like to chat with someone about local troops or becoming a leader, please reach out to us!

See if there are any Try Girl Scouts events for your area. GSEMA hosts these events, which usually include a sample troop meeting for the girls and information for the parents.

Learn about becoming a Juliette or independent Girl Scout. These girls do not participate in a troop, but can attend events, go to camp, and earn badges on their own. 

All Girl Scout volunteers are required to register and complete a background check. See the GSEMA website for how to register. Contact our registrar at registrar@arlingtongirlscouts.org for help with registration or to fill out a CORI background check form.

If you'd like to help organize and run events for Arlington Girl Scouts or find out more about the Arlington Service Team, please email coordinator@arlingtongirlscouts.org.
