Girl Scout News They plan career workshops, organize wilderness excursions, guide community projects, coach singing groups, host international visitors, and encourage girls to develop the planning and decision making abilities they need to succeed. They are the more than 300,000 women and men who are today's Girl Scout leaders. Together these Girl Scout leaders donate millions of hours each week to girls across the nation. If all their services to their communities were paid even at minimum wage levels the dollar cost would be impressive. But the value of their work in shaping the lives of today's young women cannot be calculated. In a constantly changing world. Girl Scout leaders provide positive roles for girls, helping them to experience the excitement of new possibilities, new accomplish ments, and new relationships with others. Girl Scout leaders work in partnership with girls to develop a growing confidence that enables young women to meet challenges and to become competent, self assured adults. How can the community thank Girl Scout leaders for their impor tant work? One way is to take part in the nationwide celebration of Girl Scout Leader's Day on April 22. 1982. On that day, in honor of the Girl Scout leader, a flag will be flown from the U.S. Capitol building; proclamations from government officials will be read; and girls, families and neighbors will recog nize their leaders in a variety of ways, from thank-you notes and parties to special service projects. We invite you to join with us in extending your appreciation for the generous contribution the Girl Scout leader has made to our community, and to the more than 44 million individuals who have been members of Girl Scouts of the U.S.A. since its founding 70 years ago. Thanks to the Girl Scout Leader, Girl Scouting continues going and growing.
