We’re kicking off Girl Scout week here in Western Ohio. We know what you’re thinking…isn’t every week Girl Scout week? Well yes, but everyone loves an extra reason to celebrate. Every year girls, alumnae, and volunteers across the nation celebrate a week in March, starting with Girl Scout Sunday and ending with Girl Scout Sabbath on Saturday that always includes March 12, the day when Juliette Gordon Low officially registered the first 18 girl members in 1912.

To help you plan your celebration we’ve revisiting last year’s post 10 Ways to Celebrate Girl Scout Week! Need more? Here are some more awesome ideas to make your Girl Scout week celebration the best yet!

• Create a “Birthday Party in a Bag” and present it to a local shelter.
• Contact the Activity Director at a local senior citizen home and offer to plan and put on the March birthday party for residents.
• Plant a tree or beautify an area in honor of Girl Scout Birthday Week.
• Serve at your place of worship: be the greeter, usher or do a flag ceremony.
• Do something nice for someone else. Pass out smiley face stickers. Grab a trash bag and clean up the environment around your home or troop meeting site. A great excuse to get outside and enjoy the non-below zero temperatures!
• Follow the ideas planned out by Girl Scouts of North Carolina Coastal Pines! These are awesome.
• Make or do 103 somethings! This year marks Girl Scouts’ 103rd birthday- why not blow out 103 candles (maybe not all at once though- fire hazard!) or recruit friends and family to send 103 “thank you for your service” cards to soldiers overseas?

The possibilities are endless. Start planning your Girl Scout week celebration now!
