Program & Camp Aides

Girl Learning Opportunities

Becoming a PA, PAS or CA is a great way to expand your leadership skills, meet new friends, make a difference in the lives of younger Girl Scouts and have fun! If you are a Cadette, Senior or Ambassador and are interested in working with younger girls in a troop, group or camp setting, this is for you!

Program Aide (PA)

As a certified PA, you will have the opportunity to put your new leadership skills to work. You may choose to volunteer at day camps, council events or with a troop. Program Aides will be prepared to lead songs, games, crafts, ceremonies and more! When you complete your learning opportunity, you will receive a PA pin and after 25 hours of service you will also receive a PA patch.

Program Aide Specialty (PAS)

If you are a Program Aide, who would like to enhance her certification, become a PAS. You will expand their leadership skills learning more songs, games, crafts and ceremonies, or you could branch off into a new specialty, such as photography, science or nature. This is a great opportunity to bring PAs together to learn, share and network!

Camp Aide (CA)

Certified Camp Aides spend their time volunteering at any of our six wonderful camp locations across the state. If you love the outdoors and leading others, this is the learning opportunity for you! To be eligible for certification, you need to be a registered Senior or Ambassador Girl Scout, be a certified Program Aide and attend a Camp Aide learning opportunity. After 25 hours of service, you will be certified and receive a CA patch.
