Region: East King County

Welcome to Girl Scouts East King County, serving Bothell, Woodinville, Redmond, Duval, Carnation, Sammamish, North Bend, Fall City, Issaquah, Kirkland, Kenmore, Bellevue and Mercer Island. This area is most commonly referred to as the Eastside, the collective term for the eastern suburbs of Seattle, Washington. A major technology center, the Eastside is home to many large high-tech companies, mainly in the software and wireless industries. The Eastside is also a hub for biotech and medical companies.

What's new:

Girls, it’s time to dance your heart out! In conjunction with uniquely ME!, the Girl Scout/Dove self-esteem program, Girl Scouts of Western Washington will be hosting an official BYOU2 dance party where you can participate in a fun and heart-pumping dance experience with the BYOU2 fitness DVD. Check out the flyer or contact Melissa Tuttle and Mary Rowe for more information!
The GSWW-EKC What’s Next Event for bridging 5th and/or 6th grade Junior troops and 8th grade or older girls will be held the evening of May 8 through 8 a.m. the morning of May 9, 2009. This retention event for older Girl Scouts meets 90% of Junior troops' bridging requirements, offers leader/advisor training and is a great opportunity for girls in grades 8 or higher to get hands-on leadership and event planning experience. Registration materials and further information can be obtained by contacting Teresa Woods.
Join us during the summer of 2009 for the first annual GSWW-EKC Latina Twilight Camp. The EKC Regional Office strives to ensure that Girl Scouts is an activity available to every girl, and through our Hispanic Initiative we are able to offer a twilight camp where girls and adult volunteers can come together to learn more about the Hispanic culture and Girl Scouts. The Latina Twilight camp is for Kindergarten through 6th grade girls. Different from a Day Camp held during the day, the Twilight camp will be held for one week during the late afternoon/early evening hours so that girls, families and volunteers can all be part of the fun. To volunteer with the Latina Twilight Camp or for further information on the program, please contact Maria Alejandra Gomez.
