January 17, 2023
CHARLESTON, W.Va.--Girl Scouts from across West Virginia took on the Capitol on Tuesday, Jan. 17 for "Girl Scout Day at the Legislature."
Girl Scouts showcased projects and awards in the Upper House Rotunda, joined the House and Senate galleries for resolutions and took guided tours of the Capitol.
"This event gives Girl Scouts first-hand experience with civic engagement and a unique exposure to the democratic process, parliamentary procedure, and more," said Beth Casey, CEO of the Girl Scouts of Black Diamond.
Gov. Jim Justice issued a proclamation naming Jan. 17 Girl Scout Day at the Legislature. Del. Kayla Young and Sen. Patricia Rucker both introduced citations to announce Girl Scout Day at the Legislature in the WV House and Senate, respectively.
