How to Join the Team
GSNNJ Girl Scouts who exemplify courage, confidence, and character
are invited to join our Media Girls Team . Open to Girl Scout Juniors, Cadettes,
Seniors, and Ambassadors, this team of Go-getters,
Innovators, Risk-Takers, and Leaders are the official girl faces and
voices of our council. Media Girls receive special media training to
be able to report on council and community events and share our
stories with the Girl Scout community and the world.
Media Girls are called upon to:


Volunteer at Girl Scout booths at public events.

Participate in focus groups.

Write articles and shoot photos/videos.
Media Girls Team Requirements

four pieces of coverage throughout the year.

- You must quote at least one source in your pieces.
- Each event will have a submission deadline, typically about one week after the event, to ensure timely reporting.
