Charmers
The Charmers program is a fun and exciting way to promote a positive image of Girl Scouting and achieve visibility in the community. Charmer Girl Scouts are needed to appear in media-related projects, such as television or radio spots, magazines, newspaper coverage or United Way projects. Other appearances made by Charmers include flag ceremonies, speaking at council-sponsored events, presenting gifts to guest speakers and dignitaries, presenting a volunteer with balloons and flowers, participating in parades, and accompanying executive staff to community events. Charmer Girl Scouts may also be featured in the council’s marketing and promotional materials.
Often requests for participation in an event may come with as little as a few hours notice. But Charmers are always prepared. Through real life experiences, Charmers gain valuable self-esteem by learning presentation skills, etiquette, and poise in their roles. By becoming a Charmer, the marketing department at GSCCV will have quick and easy access to willing participants.
All Girl Scouts are eligible to become Charmers. To register, complete an application form and submit to the
Brandon English, Marketing Specialist. Once registered,
Girl Scouts become Charmers and will be contacted as
opportunities arise. Charmers application forms
are available on the council’s website at
