About this Event
Join USA Girl Scouts Overseas for our 3rd Annual Leadership Weekend, exclusively for Girl Scout Cadettes, Seniors, and Ambassadors. Participants will meet other Girl Scouts from around the world while strengthening their leadership skills and preparing to tackle their Bronze, Silver, and/or Gold Award.
Stay tuned for additional details about the weekend. We will share exciting updates here this summer!
Training sessions include:
- Overview of Girl Scout's Leadership Awards
- Leading Younger Girls
- Leadership Styles
- Goal Setting
- Building and Leading a Team
- Project Management
When Girl Scouts aren't sharpening their leadership skills, they will take advantage of the program's incredible location and do a little bit of sightseeing and cultural immersion! Girl Scouts will be staying along the Randen train line in the heart of the city. During the weekend, they will visit a local university and a temple, enjoy typical Japanese cuisine, and explore other iconic Kyoto sights!
We do not want the cost of this program to prevent any Girl Scout from attending! Financial assistance is availiable. Please apply here if needed.
Make the most of your time in Kyoto! For those planning to arrive early or stay after the event, we reccomend these top sights in Kyoto:
Kinkaku-ji
Kiyomizu-dera
