Other Membership Opportunities

Juliettes Individually registered members are also known as Juliettes, named after our founder, Juliette Gordon Low. Juliettes choose how to participate based on their schedule and interests. Reasons girls may become a Juliette: • No troop in close proximity of home or school • Current troop does not want to continue with Girl Scouting • Prior commitments or scheduling conflicts that make troop participation difficult Juliettes earn badges, attend council events and programs, attend day and overnight camps, sell cookies and Treats & Reads and also earn their Highest Awards.

Robotics GSEM encourages girls to become science and technology leaders through participation in the FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) Robotics program. Each team member gains hands-on STEM experience along with problem-solving, teamwork and other important life skills. Robotics teams follow an innovative curriculum that combines basic engineering and science concepts with an exciting season theme, then show off what they have learned at an end-of-season event. The 2025-2026 season theme is focused on archaeology!

Make a splash with Mariner Girl Scouts! Cadette, Senior and Ambassador Girl Scouts discover and develop their water-sport skills through canoeing, sailing and swimming. From mastering canoeing strokes to navigating a sailboat as a team, Mariner Girl Scouts conquer the open waters through this special interest program! Girls set sail in ships of six or more, either as an existing troop or as individual Girl Scouts and volunteers, while still maintaining registration in their existing troops. Girl Scout Mariners who are graduating high school have the opportunity to join the Barnacle Ship and help mentor other girls.

No previous experience is necessary for our participants or coaches.
