NEW! Troop Descriptions and Troop Focus

Share what your troop is all about!

Create your own troop description using 3-5 sentences. This description will be visible to anyone who wants to know more about your troop. Copy and paste using the samples below or use them as inspiration! Don't worry, you can reach out to us and change this at any time!

Sample Artistic Troop:

We are an artsy troop that loves to be creative! In addition to pursuing our leadership and service activities, the girls tend to pursue the more artistic badges and projects. We tend to take a break each summer, resuming in the fall.

Sample Outdoorsy Troop

Our troop loves the outdoors! We make sure to go to camp at least once during the school year – at least for day events if not an overnight. We also go to camp together each summer and have a goal to sell enough cookies for horse camp this year. We meet right after school, so the times sometimes flex due to travel and the girls' schedules.

Sample Sporty Troop

Our troop’s girls are very active in school sports and choose Girl Scout activities that supplement those interests. We go to camp each year, and the girls favor the health and activity badges. We also love to attend the “Girl Scout Nights” with local sporting teams.

Sample S.T.E.A.M. Troop

This troop loves science! The girls love working on STEAM badges, and we plan to go to a STEM camp session together this summer. The girls also have a passion for improving our community, and we’ll be working on our Bronze Award this year.

The default description below will be used if a none is provided by your troop

This Girl Scout troop meets regularly through the school year. Girl's lead the way, choosing badges, awards, and activities that give will create an amazing experience. Girls will build life skills as they gain new friends.
