Juliette Program Activities
Juliette Activities
Girl Scouting is the partnership of girls and
adults working together. Juliette Girl Scouts should participate
in activities that are appropriate for their age
level. A wide variety of ideas can be found in the Girl
Scout Handbook, as well as many activities provided
by the Council Program Department and the local Service Units.
Juliette Girl Scouts should be supervised by adults at all
times. Written Parent
Permission to participate is required for all activities
facilitated by other adults, regardless if the parent is
present during the activity or not.
 Council
Events
Council wide
events are planned and organized by the council with
volunteer assistance. Juliettes are welcome to participate
in ANY council level event scheduled. Juliettes
will need to be accompanied by an adult when participating
in any council level event, unless otherwise noted. Tag-alongs
(siblings/friends) are not allowed at events, unless otherwise
noted. Registration is
required for all events, using the Member Event Registration
Form ( PDF

The schedule
of events is listed in each month on the council web
site. Some events are age level specific and others are
open to all age levels. All registered Juliette Girl
Scouts MUST HAVE A COMPLETED PARENT
PERMISSION FORM to participate in any event (even
if their parent accompanies them).
Service Unit Events & Special Juliette Events

camping experience for Brownie through Senior Girl Scouts. The
council provides a complete camp staff, site and facilities. Girls
register for resident camp as individuals. Camp
sessions are from several days to a week long, depending
on the special focus of the session. A camp catalog
will be provided to every registered Girl Scout and has complete
information and schedules for
Resident Camp sessions. Resident Camp runs from June through
August of each year. Camp Foxtail is an American
Camping Association accredited camp facility and is located
in the Lee Canyon area of Mt. Charleston. Financial
assistance is available for resident camp experiences and

a chance to go somewhere new, do something different, and
meet people from everywhere you can imagine. There are many
different types of events to choose from. You can travel
around the corner or around the globe. Destinations are constantly
being added. Information regarding destinations program
opportunities can be found at www.studio2b.org.
