2008 National Council Session/51st Convention

 

The 2008 Girl Scout National Council Session 51st Convention will take place from October 30-November 2, 2008 in Indianapolis, Ind. This event takes place every three years and is the largest event on the Girl Scout calendar! More than 14,000 girl and adult members and nearly 200 exhibitors and sponsors will converge for the event, each committed to developing girls' leadership skills.


During this event, the National Council of Girl Scouts will make important decisions critical to the continued success of the organization. We will celebrate the dramatic changes and accomplishments of the Movement, since initiating a new business strategy in 2004.
 

The Girl Scouts of Maine will be sending ten delegates to the National Convention and visitors are welcome to come as well. If you are planning on attending 2008 National Convention as a visitor please let us know. Tentative travel dates are from October 29th to November 2nd.
