The Number of Scouts BSA Troops for Girls Continues to Climb

Article contributed by Wendy Shaw, National Director of Membership Growth

Last month we shared the national aspirational goal of having a Scouts BSA troop for girls in every district. The number of those troops continues to climb. Let’s look at some of the highlights to date …

If you have eight or more troops in your district, you are in the TOP TEN in the BSA! Great work to the staff serving those districts. If you have seven girl troops in your district you are in the TOP TWENTY! Impressive work in less than seven months.

Congrats to the following councils for having a girl troop in every traditional district:
