Girl Scout Cadettes, Seniors, and Ambassadors are amazing! You can help younger Girl Scouts earn a Journey, serve as a role model as you lead an event or activity, be a mentor in a camp setting, lead community service efforts, participate in exclusive mentoring opportunities, or reach for Girl Scouts’ Highest Awards.
Celebrate all the ways you lead - yourself, your team, and your community - with new & updated leadership awards.

Girl Scout Ambassadors, do you love camp and enjoy working with younger children? Would you like to one day be a camp staff member? If so, join us and become a Counselor In Training (CIT). This training is one of the best ways to develop skills to become a truly fabulous future camp counselor. Visit the Activities Page to search for training opportunities.

Girl Scout Seniors and Ambassadors in 10th through 12th grades can take their leadership skills to the next level by earning their ViT pin. You can complete the training with a facilitator or work independently. After you complete your training, you will work with a Girl Scout Adult mentor to complete 4-6 month internship where you will lead younger Girl Scouts for at least four sessions.
Do you have an interest in government or current state issues? Do you want to learn more about our state’s capital city? If so, consider applying to serve in Governor’s Page Program. You will join Girl Scouts from all over North Carolina to learn how our state government really works and participate in the legislative process. Girl Scouts selected will have the opportunity to meet the Governor and to tour the Governor’s Mansion as well as other local sights. Participants may stay with family or friends, or a host family specially selected by the Page Coordinator’s office.
Girl Scouts who choose to serve during Girl Scout Week (March 11-14, 2024) will submit a special application that will be posted here in late 2023.
We’re always looking for adult volunteers who are interested in helping older Girl Scouts earn leadership awards. If you’d like to become a Program Aide Trainer or Volunteer in Training Mentor, share your interest by emailing girlawards@nccoastalpines.org.
