Take the Lead is GSEP's signature fundraising event honoring our community's most distinguished women whose leadership and professional achievements make the world a better place. Did you know that YOU can also participate in Take The Lead? There are a variety of lead roles available for Girl Scouts in grades 9-12. Do you like to sing? Do you have the gift of gab? Or, are you looking for a leadership opportunity and a chance to learn from one of the amazing Take The Lead Honorees-there is something for every Girl Scout! In your interview you will be asked what role you would be most interested in. Cost of the program is $5/Girl Scout. Financial aid is available.
*Includes Take the Lead patch and rocker, snack at training/rehearsal, and dinner at a Take the Lead event. All lead roles require an interview for selection. A member of the Girl Experience team will reach out in October to set up interviews.
