Calling all Cadette, Senior and Ambassador Girl Scouts who love to read and want to make a difference in the world! Join us each month as we explore the power of storytelling while meeting new friends and engaging in meaningful conversations about books! Girls will take the lead by choosing which books we'll read and guiding our discussions. GSHNJ staff will help with coordinating activities connected to each month's book club pick, cultivating potential leadership opportunities, and coordinating special guest speakers. You can join us in person (snacks included) or request to join virtually! The program is also open to non-members so invite a friend even if they aren't a registered Girl Scout!
