(Postponed from 10/1 to 10/15 due to severe weather) Girls at least age 11 (or 10 and finished fifth grade) and a parent or trusted adult are invited to a welcome open house to learn more about the DMV's largest Scouts BSA Troop for Girls. We meet from 10 AM to Noon on Saturday twice each month at All Souls Episcopal Church, 2300 Cathedral Ave., NW (between Woodley Park Metro and the Zoo). This is the program formerly known as “Boy Scouts” in an all-girl implementation. Our Troop is all-girl, comprised of many sub-groups known as “patrols”. We follow the identical citizenship, outdoor adventure and physical fitness program. We are intensively outdoor-oriented, with monthly campouts and big annual trips to go backpacking at places like Philmont Scout Reservation in New Mexico. Stop by and learn about us!

Do you want to become friends with other GIRLS across Washington, DC, explore the outdoors, become a leader of GIRLS and have fun learning and traveling? Want to climb to a Shenandoah mountaintop, earn awards and maybe even become an Eagle Scout? How about riding horses, paddling canoes on the Potomac River, and getting to know women and men who run businesses or government agencies right here in the District? How about high-adventure at places like Philmont Scout Ranch in New Mexico?

You have found the right group for all these things and more in Scouts BSA Troop 248 for Girls. This is the all-girl Troop led by and for GIRLS here in the District of Columbia! All GIRLS are eligible to join from anywhere across the Metropolitan area!

You can join our troop if you are a Girl age 11 to 17 years of age. You can also join if you have earned the Cub Scouting Arrow of Light Award and are at least 10 years old or have completed the fifth grade and are at least 10.

Take a look at our website with your parents and friends at www.ScoutsBsaDcGirls.org. Then come with your parents to our welcome Open House on Saturday, October 1 from Noon until 1 PM.
