Powered by Purpose, Built to Soar

We are so proud of Eastern Missouri Girl Scouts, Ruth and Aryah, for their awesome interview skills demonstrated on KSDK—5 On Your Side to spotlight April Showers! Grateful as always to our families, volunteers, and staff who are the force behind this impactful community effort!

The Girl Scouts of Eastern Missouri Community Troop Program team hosted their inaugural Sneaker Ball, an evening filled with more than 400 young girls singing, dancing, laughing, and playing. Kudos to the Community Troop Program, Girl Scouts Beyond Bars, staff, and volunteers that ensured a successful event!

I look forward to moments when there is a special visit from one of our GSEM troops participating in the Council tour program. Troop 492 took charge of my office last night and it filled me with joy, hope, and inspiration!

It was pure joy to celebrate the incredible young women who earned the prestigious Gold Award! Our future is bright because of trailblazers like these young ladies. Keep soaring higher—you inspire us all!

GSEM hosted the annual Dessert First event, showcasing our girls’ leadership skills on center stage. It was a night full of inspiration, highlighting excitement, impact, and our unwavering dedication to nurturing future leaders.

We also celebrated the grand opening of the Girl Scouts of Eastern Missouri Build-A-Bear Workshop with our community! This vibrant, hands-on space is a testament to what’s possible through vision and partnership.
