BELONGING TO A SERVICE UNIT

Girl Scouts of Western Ohio - Great Rivers Region is divided into geographic sections known as service units. The service unit provides the setting within which the primary services of a council, such as organizing troops and providing direct services to girls and leaders, takes place.

Although not required, members of the service unit generally live within a service unit's boundaries

The needs of the members of the service unit determine the frequency, purpose, and content of service unit meetings and other communication methods. Typical meeting activities include learning, planning, discussion of successes and challenges with girls, and circulation of information. All troops should strive to be represented at service unit meetings. In addition to service unit meetings, the council website (www.grgsc.org)  provides information on current council resources and program and training opportunities.
