Girl Scouts
Girl Scouting at Our Lady of the Pillar is open to girls in kindergarten through 8th grade. The current site invites new scouts and new troop leaders, and asks families to start with the parish office.
What the troops do
Girls join for friendship and also build character, confidence, and a habit of serving. The current site lists these as recent activities.
- Christmas service projects for the Gift of Mary Center holiday luncheon
- April Showers
- Girl Scout cookie season
- Scouting Sunday Mass
- Badge jamboree
- Horseback riding
- Neighborhood bowling
- Field trips, including the Magic House, the Missouri Botanical Garden, and the Brentwood firehouse
- Overnight camping and day camp
Girl Scout Promise
- On my honor, I will try: to serve God and my country, to help people at all times, and to live by the Girl Scout Law.
Girl Scout Law
The current site prints the Law as the way members agree to act toward one another and the world.
- Be honest and fair, friendly and helpful, considerate and caring, courageous and strong, and responsible for what I say and do.
- Respect myself and others, respect authority, use resources wisely, make the world a better place, and be a sister to every Girl Scout.
