The program is delivered through troops comprised of five age levels: Daisy, 5-6 years old; Brownie, 6-8 years; Junior, 8-11 years old; Cadette, 11-14 years old and Senior, 14-17 years old. Individual memberships are available for girls who cannot attend regular troop meetings. A summer camp program is conducted at six camps throughout the council's area. Bilingual Hispanic staff.
