Who We Are :
We are the Girl Scouts of Silver Sage. We are a movement of K-12 girls and adult volunteers who believe girls can change the world, and we serve across 35 counties in Idaho, and one county each in eastern Oregon and northern Nevada. It began over 100 years ago with one woman, Girl Scouts’ founder Juliette Gordon “Daisy” Low, who believed in the power of every girl. She organized the first Girl Scout troop on March 12, 1912, in Savannah, Georgia, and every year since, we've made her vision a reality, helping girls discover their strengths, passions, and talents.
