Current Calendar

Girl Scouts of America is the world's largest organization dedicated to helping all girls everywhere build character and gain skills for success in the real world. In an accepting and nurturing environment, and in partnership with committed adult volunteers, girls develop strong values, leadership skills, social conscience, and conviction about their own potential and self-worth that will serve them all their lives.

Worldwide, there are over 80 Girl Scout Programs.  A brief description of our program in Madrid, Spain is as follows:

Brownie Troop 0009

Our troop is comprised of 1^st, 2^nd and 3^rd graders (ages 6-9).  We meet on Friday afternoons from 5:30 to 7 PM at the American School of Madrid, although our members are from different schools around Madrid.
