You don’t have to go it alone!

The Lawrence Hidden Valley Committee is committed to supporting Girl Scouting in the Douglas County area.  As part of that effort, we have created a mentoring program for inexperienced leaders to help them be great leaders and to take their girls camping.  If you are relatively new to being a Girl Scout leader and/or are not feeling very sure of yourself, we invite you take advantage of the wealth of knowledge that is around you! 

Program Mentor

Girl Scout program mentors’ role is to empower inexperienced leaders to deliver an effective, fun Girl Scout program.  They may do any or all of the following things: 

• offer advice when asked
• give guidance in navigating the Council and Service Unit structures and requirements
• brainstorm with you to help with meeting ideas, organization, etc.
• assist you in finding and using resources (handbooks, national programs, etc)

Camping Mentor

The camping mentors’ role is to offer guidance as you plan and carry out camping experiences.  A camping mentor may:

• brainstorm with the leader and troop to assist in planning camping trips
• offer advice when asked
• answer questions/find needed information
• assist in navigating SU/council requirements in re: camping trips
• attend outdoor event with troop

Special Event for this Fall
