Girl Scout Senior RoundupsInternational Girl Scout gatherings named Senior Roundups were held
every three years from 1956 until 1965:
Milford, Michigan (1956) attended by 5,000 girls
Colorado Springs, Colorado, from 1959-07-03 to 1959-07-12, with
10,000 girls
Button Bay, Vermont from 1962-07-27 to 1962-08-03, with 9,000 girls
Farragut Reservation, Idaho, from 1965-07-17 to 1965-07-26, with
12,000 girls
Mariner ScoutsThe 20th National Council of the GSUSA launched the Mariner Girl
Scout program in October 1934. Similar to the Boy Scouts' Sea
Scouts, the program was designed for older Girl Scouts interested in
outdoor water-based activities. By the end of 1934, 12 Mariner ships
were registered and the first two handbooks, Launching a Girl Scout
Mariner Ship and Charting the Course of a Girl Scout Mariner Ship
were published. The Mariner Girl Scout program remains active but in
a smaller form; most girls have instead joined the Sea Scouts, which
has been co-ed since 1971. |
Wing ScoutsThe Wing Scout program was a popular older Girl Scout program begun
in 1941 and ending in the 1970s for girls interested in flying and
wanting to serve their country. Like the Mariner Scout program, the
Wing Scout program began as a Senior Girl Scout Mobilist Project
with limited expectations,[13] but by July 1942, 29 troop leaders
from fifteen states met in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to take Wing
Scout leadership training. These leaders returned to their councils
and began setting up Wing Scout troops.
In 1959, Girl Scout Council in North San Mateo County, California
was presented with an offer from United Airlines San Francisco
Management Club President J. L. Burnside to start an aviation
program for Senior Girl Scouts. One of the highlights of the Wing
Scout program was the courtesy flight provided to Senior Girl Scouts
using United Airlines' jets. For many of the girls, this was the
first time they had flown in a plane.
Wing Scouts took the program seriously and as a result of their
proficient training and ability, Senior Girl Scouts who had been in
the program for three years were given the opportunity to take over
the controls during flight in a small aircraft. The program was
discontinued after United Airlines experienced financial setbacks in
the 1970s |
