Towns Served South River and Milltown
The South River/Milltown Service Unit serves girls from grade K-12 in South River & Milltown. As a membere of the Girls Scouts of Central & Southern NJ we work to build girls of courage, confidence and character who make the world a better place.
Girl Scouting is for every girl, everywhere—where today's girls can become tomorrow's leaders. Membership in Girl Scouts is open to girls in grades K- 12; women and men over 18 can join as adult members.
Most girls join a local troop or group for fun and friendship, but they also find out about building character and self-esteem and serving their communities—the core qualities of Girl Scouting. In Girl Scouts, girls find a safe place to grow and share new experiences, learn to relate to others, develop values, and contribute to society.
Volunteers are an important part of the Girl Scouts.
Interested adults can volunteer either short term or long term. Please consider volunteering today!
