For over 100 years, Girl Scouts has helped girls develop the skills and confidence they need to blossom into their best selves. From our earliest badges in electricity, aeronautics, and natural sciences to today’s all-girl robotics teams and cookie entrepreneurs, girls have challenged themselves through our skill-building opportunities, worked with inspiring role models, and developed lifelong friendships.

The CMDO promotes Girl Scout visibility and strengthens the Girl Scout brand in our Alaskan communities.
