About Us.
Background

In 1912, Julliette Gordon Low brought Girl Scouting to the United States from England. Today, Girl Scouts of the U.S.A. is the largest voluntary organization for girls in the world. Girl Scouting is a movement that gives girls from all segments of the population a chance to develop their potential and to become a vital part of their community. Based on ethical values, it opens up a world of opportunity for youth, working in partnership with adult volunteers.

Girl Scouts of Michigan Trails, founded in 1943, serves the following 7 Counties: Kent, Ionia, Mecosta, Montcalm, Osceola, Ottawa, and a portion of Allegan. The council serves approximately 12,000 Girl Scouts who participate in Girl Scout programs with the assistance of 2,500 adult volunteers. Girl Scouting is open to all girls ages 5-17.
