This October, Girl Scouts of WNY is proud to celebrate International Day of the Girl with two weeks of empowering, open-to-the-public events for girls of all ages! Whether you’re already a Girl Scout or brand new, you’re invited to join us for hands-on adventures, creative workshops, and inspiring celebrations.
Participate in our annual Join-a-Thon on Wednesday, October 8! This is the perfect day to get started with Girl Scouts culminating with a Gabby's Dollhouse Dance Party at our Buffalo and Rochester, NY locations.
On Saturday, October 11, we’ll honor International Day of the Girl with a special community event at Stitch Buffalo — a chance to participate in a community art project while celebrating girls’ voices and leadership in action.
Our programming then continues and culminates with Reaching New Heights on Saturday, October 18 — a day of exploration, growth, and empowerment.
