Offered to: Daisy | Brownie | Junior | Cadette | Senior | Ambassador Grades K-12 Are you curious about what happens behind the scenes at the Girl Scout Service Center— where do all those cookies get stored, who packs the Daisy Drop Boxes and Brownie Bundles, what is the Emerson Resource Center and can I visit the Girl Scout Shop? For this upcoming year, Girl Scouts of Eastern Missouri is offering 60-minute tours of the Service Center on Tuesdays each month. Tours are conducted by members of the council’s senior leadership team and provide a tour of the office, overview of council operations, and an opportunity to learn about the Emerson Resource Center and the Girl Scout Shop. They are available for a troop, adult neighborhood members, caregivers, and girl combination(s) and so on. The tours are offered to registered members and it is the responsibility of the group requesting the tour to meet the girl/adult ratio. All participants receive an "I Toured the Girl Scouts of Eastern Missouri Service Center" patch, a Girl Scout SWAP and will participate in a sacavenger hunt about the Service Center.
