Girl Scout Week is almost here, and we want to know how you’re celebrating! This is an annual celebration of Girl Scout spirit in the week surrounding Girl Scouts’ birthday, on March 12.

It’s the perfect time to learn more about the history of Girl Scouts and our founder, Juliette Gordon Low. You can browse information on Girl Scouts of the USA’s “Our History” section of the website here.

Here are a few ideas for ways to celebrate, or check with your council for additional options, or make up your own!

Sunday, March 8: Honor Your Beliefs
Girl Scout Sunday is a special day dedicated to thinking about your beliefs and how they’re reflected in the Girl Scout Law. Think of the things the two have in common and share your thoughts with others.

Monday, March 9: Mission: Sisterhood
Give a big shout-out to your Girl Scout sisters! Whether you tag other Girl Scouts on social media or get creative and make a card or gift for a Girl Scout in your life, don’t be bashful about sharing the love.

Tuesday, March 10: Do a Good Turn Daily
Perform an act of kindness. Whether you pay for a stranger’s cup of coffee or visit an elderly neighbor, every bit of positivity Girl Scouts put out there helps make the world a better place.

Wednesday, March 11: Girl Scout Spirit Day
Get out your green gear—it’s Girl Scout Spirit Day! Whether you sport a Girl Scout tee under a blazer at the office or rock a trefoil sweatshirt at the gym, let everyone know you’re a proud Girl Scout.

Thursday, March 12: Happy Birthday Girl Scouts! 
It’s Girl Scouts’ 108th birthday! Honor the Girl Scout Movement by sharing on social media an issue you’re passionate about and what you’re doing to make a difference. You’ve got this, Girl Scout!

Friday, March 13: Girl Scout Jummah 
Girl Scout Jummah celebrates the powerful ties between Girl Scouting and faith and, on this day, Girl Scouts across the country will honor those share believes as they pledge to serve God and others.

Saturday, March 13: Girl Scout Sabbath
Besides reflecting on your beliefs and how they’re echoed in the Girl Scout Law, we urge you to take some time this Girl Scout Sabbath to learn something new about someone else’s faith.

A friendly reminder that if you’d like to contribute content for April, the interest form is due by March 10.
