The Board of Directors is the only governance policy-making
body in a Girl Scout Council with the power to establish
council-wide policies and standards, which determine
the parameters within which operation (management)
decisions are made.
Governance decisions are broad policy decisions made
by a volunteer board of directors to provide stability
within a council and to give direction for the way
Girl Scouting is implemented in the council jurisdiction. Governance
decisions relate to strategic planning, tactical
planning, fund
development, fiduciary oversight (money), selection
and performance evaluation of the executive director, policy-influencing
systems, and organizational performance appraisal.
To contact the Board of Directors, please email: board@frontiercouncil.org.
