2012 - 2013 Annual Report - Girl Scouts Northeast Texas

2013
ANNUAL REPORT
Dear Girl Scout Friends:
As Juliette Gordon Low, our Founder said, “The work of today is the history of tomorrow, and we are its
makers.” Since our Centennial Celebration at the State Fair of Texas, we have been honing our focus,
building a stronger infrastructure, and utilizing outcomes to improve our programs and ensure their relevance
for today’s girls. Through every step of the way, girls remain at the center of our lens as we empower them to
reach their highest potential.
In 2013, a special task force of volunteers, board members, community leaders, and staff embarked on the
council’s second Strategic Learning Process to assess our strengths and weaknesses. With more than 33,000
girls and 17,000 adults, we are constantly reviewing what is working and what isn’t. This enables us to keep Girl
Scouting relevant and fun, while providing the most up-to-date leadership development skills to our
membership. Our task force emerged with a clear picture of our priorities for the next five years: Girl and
Family Experience, Volunteer Support and Engagement, Program Effectiveness, and Growth Strategies.
Inherent in each priority are three business imperatives: Value Proposition, Fund Development, and Process
and Technology. Looking forward, our winning proposition is to be the premier place for girls to have fun,
explore their full potential, and become leaders!
We are working to realign staff and job responsibilities to create the environment in which Girl Scouts builds
girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place. Another
focus of Girl Scouts of Northeast Texas will be to engage more girls in STEM (Science, Technology,
Engineering, and Math) activities, encouraging them to not only seek careers in STEM fields, but ultimately to
help create our future. It is critical that girls come into contact with female role models in various STEM fields
and are given an opportunity to see how STEM affects every aspect of our lives.
Thanks to lead gifts from the Rees-Jones Foundation, the Simmons Foundation, and the Hoglund Foundation,
we have taken the first steps in transforming our Camp Whispering Cedars into our STEM Center of
Excellence. Partnering with entities such as the Perot Museum of Nature and Science, the Dallas County
Community College District, and others, we will soon be able to provide hands-on experiences and mentors
to bring alive the educational and career opportunities in STEM fields. Many of our badge programs are
incorporating STEM facets, helping girls realize the new ideas they can bring to the world of STEM, as well.
Another critical focus area is on our volunteers – engaging them, helping to make their work easier,
improving our technology, and providing them with more online training courses, easier registration, and
access to the information they need. Our volunteers hold the promise of a better world, giving girls in
Northeast Texas experiences they will cherish for a lifetime.
If we are to continue to make “the history for tomorrow” for today’s Girl Scouts, we must be willing to take
a hard look at ourselves and make the changes that this generation requires. Together, we are making a
difference in the lives of girls. Thank you for supporting our girls, enabling them to make our world a
better place.
Yours in Girl Scouting,
Colleen Walker

Strategic Learning
In 2013, GSNETX began a journey of strategic learning with a team of volunteers, staff, and board
members. That journey led the council to an innovative spotlight on customer experience, with
special attention focusing on how to equip the volunteers of today with the tools and resources they
need to build girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place.
The focus for the council is on four critical initiatives:
Girl and Family Experience: Create an inclusive environment where girls and
families feel welcome, connected, to Girl Scouts and can fully benefit from the
Girl Scout Leadership Experience.
Volunteer Support and Engagement: Establish a relational, effective
volunteer system that drives engagement and retention and ensures that
GSNETX is the opportunity of choice for volunteers who want to impact
girls’ lives.
Program Effectiveness: Create an outcome-driven culture among all staff,
volunteers, and community partners. This culture will advance alignment
with the National Program Portfolio, use of the Girl Scout processes, and
measurement and reporting of Girl Scout Leadership Experience outcomes
in order to deliver the ultimate girl experience.
Growth Strategy: Transform girl and volunteer recruitment and retention
strategies with a focus on building and growing diverse, sustainable
GSNETX membership.
With this strategic
direction, GSNETX
restructured its
mission delivery
staff before the 2013
Administrative Kickoff.

• Membership staff were realigned to implement
key strategies for recruiting new members and
retaining current members.
• The Program Team was structured to serve
program grade levels and short-term volunteers.
• Adult training is undergoing a transformation in
partnership with GSUSA to best serve the
volunteers of today, with enhanced use of
technology and innovation.

COLLEGE JOURNEY
Girl Scouts entering 7th – 12th grade participated in hands-on experiments with a focus on
(STEM) in a college setting at the University of Texas at Dallas. There were two sessions: Cadette
Week on June 23-28 and Senior/Ambassador Week on July 21-26. During the five-day workshop, girls interacted with college students, were mentored by successful
STEM professionals, and were exposed to a wide array of exciting STEM related coursework including
computer programming, robotics, environmental engineering, biology, and anatomy. Texas
Instruments sponsored Senior/Ambassador Week and the Fluor Foundation sponsored Cadette Week.
STEM Outcomes
Girls develop:
• Confidence in STEM
• Awareness of STEM in daily living
• Understanding of STEM career
options
• Interest in pursuing STEM courses and careers
“Because of College Journey, I have set higher standards
for myself in my science and math classes”

Gold Award Program
The Girl Scout Gold Award is the highest award a Girl Scout can earn and recognizes Girl Scout
Seniors and Ambassadors who demonstrate community leadership, culminating in 80 hours or
more of service. Each girl chooses and thoroughly researches an issue she cares about, designs
her action plan, builds community collaborations, and takes the lead in implementing her
Girl Scout Gold Award project.
Girls received their
Gold Award in 2013
Maria Hayes, a 2013 Gold Award Honoree, challenged herself daily and took
the road less traveled by other students. Her hard work has paid off. In
May, she graduated in the Top 10 of her class from Denison High School.
Maria was a Commended National Merit, an AP Scholar, Outstanding Science
Student, and Outstanding Spanish Student. She earned numerous academic
letters and served as Secretary of the Grayson County 4-H Council. Maria,
a 14 year member of Girl Scouts, recently received her Gold Award working
with Texoma Health Foundation to create a resource room, “Room for Hope,”
for women with breast cancer.
“I have learned countless things from Girl Scouts! From learning
how to make and keep friendships to learning how to become a
responsible adult, Girl Scouts has made me who I am today! I am
incredibly grateful for the opportunities it has given me.”
- Maria Hayes, 2013 Gold Award Honoree

- Coach Thibodaux, Robert T. Hill MS, GSSD
