From Council:
"GSEM is seeking Girl Scouts, ages 14-17, to serve on the council's Board of Directors for a one-year term. This is an exciting way to be part of the ciritical decisions that will determine the future of GSEM. As a member of the Board, you will learn about governance - how a board creates policies and makes decisions - and you will get to take an active role in how that happens. You will meet and work with some interesting and influential people and you will have an opportunity to make sure that those people hear from you. Being on the Board requires a time commitment and taking responsibility, but with it comes great reward.
Each year, four older girls (ages 14-17) are elected to the Board as full-voting members, contributing their input and perspective to the policy issues that the Board decides on.
This is a great leadership opportunity for older girls as it offers extensive experience working in partnership with the adult board members to make a difference in how the council is governed. And -- it's a great college application/resume builder.
Interested? Want to apply? Applications, resume, and letters of reference are due to Council by January 23, 2013. Interviews will be held at Cedar Hill on Saturday, February 2. Here's the application link:
