Fall Product
Girl Scouts of Orange County will not be hosting a Fall Product Program or Fall Kickoff Event in 2025.
This decision was made after thoughtful consideration and valuable feedback from our members and volunteers. It reflects a strategic shift to invest council resources where they can have the most significant impact, meeting the needs of today’s girls and families where they are now.
We deeply value the incredible time, energy, and heart our volunteers dedicate to creating meaningful experiences for girls. By streamlining our entrepreneurship programming, we aim to better support our volunteers and families and ensure the Girl Scout experience remains engaging, enriching, and fun for every girl.
Looking ahead, we’re excited to focus on impactful opportunities that help girls grow as leaders and entrepreneurs, including:
New events and activities that build business and financial literacy skills—beyond the incredible lessons learned through our product programs
Enhanced troop support, resources, and training
Time and spaces for girls to connect with other Girl Scouts during the busy back-to-school season
A more consistent program year, with time freed-up to experience a well-rounded Girl Scout journey—including outdoor adventures, the arts, STEM, and life skills—to help girls become truly life-ready in a rapidly evolving world
And increased resources and support leading up to the Girl Scout Cookie Program
Thank you for your ongoing dedication to our mission and to the girls we serve. Together, we are building a brighter future—one Girl Scout at a time.
