Why do we LOVE our Adult Learning Team?

Over time Girl Scout volunteers acquire one of the most valuable resources – expertise. They've been through it all and know what it takes to lead troops effectively, run programs, go camping…and so much more. As a member of the Adult Learning Team we ask you to share what you know to continue the progression of leadership throughout all levels of Girl Scouts.
