The Council is expanding offerings for Girl Scouts, families and
members at home:
VIRTUAL RESOURCES
Virtual resources will be available on the Council website for
members and families, which will include national virtual troop
meetings from GSUSA, as well as Virtual Learning Labs based on patch programs.
BECAUSE OF HER
Girl Scouts of Black Diamond staff has been working hard to make
this patch program a virtual learning experience. We are making videos
and uploading activity guides. Each week, we will explore and
celebrate women who embody the Girl Scout Promise and Law, while being
the change the world needs. Past videos and guides will remain online
for all of our members to join at any time. Facebook groups have been
developed, so girls can engage with each other as they learn about
some amazing women. To learn more, please click here.
The Because of Her patch set can be purchased from our shop, and be
shipped directly to your girl. For more information, please contact shop@bdgsc.org.
CROCHETING WITH KRISTEN
If you’re a visual learner, join Cristin as she teaches girls the
basics of crocheting and a pattern for ear savers. In the first video,
she introduces the basics of crocheting, including how to hold the
needle and cast the yarn. In the second video, Cristin demonstrates
how to make ear savers for medical masks. Learn more here,
under Black Diamond on Demand.

GIRL SCOUTS AT HOME
GSUSA is inviting every girl and any of their female friends to
engage with other girls across the country! Girls can stay connected
and continue making the world a better place. Programming is open to
girls of all grade levels (K-12th grade). There are also awesome links
for parents and families and troop leaders. We are all in this
together as we continue to celebrate our national sisterhood. To learn
more, please click here.
AQUARIUM ADVENTURES
Our Program Partners are stepping up to the plate to offer live
interaction with animals. Join the WAVE Foundation at the Newport
Aquarium every Monday, Wednesday and Friday to see live streaming
videos of their center. This past Wednesday, they taught girls how to
feed sharks. The videos will stay online for girls who join at a later
time. This is a free program. Please click here for more information.
FACEBOOK GROUPS
If you are a parent or volunteer, please join our Facebook
Group. We are posting new opportunities for your girl almost daily.
EVENT CANCELATION POLICY
If you have been affected by the events being canceled or postponed,
there are three options available:
- Do nothing. If the event you registered for is rescheduled at
a date that works for you, we will automatically move your
registration to that date.
- Request a gift certificate to be
used at a different event. We offer events all year long, and there
might be another program that catches your eye. You could also use
the gift certificate in the shop.
- If none of the options
above work for you, please reach out to our Customer Care Team to
request a refund. They can be contacted at 304.345.7722 or at customercare@bdgsc.org.
