From Melinda Caroll…”What a fun and curious age level to be entering the new millennium! This new century poises our youngest Girl Scouts® on an amazing threshold where they stand looking toward an abounding future. As Girl Scouts®, we all hold the ideal that all dreams are possible. Our youngest girls now have opportunities that were unfathomable in the 20th century. They will see the cures to many diseases, a powerful calling to world peace, and instant communication to anyone, anywhere!

Events that once seemed like marvels, are now daily occurrences! This is truly a time in history when girls are GROWING STRONG! Our combined impact in Girl Scouting is being felt and heard throughout the world! Beyond the threshold, we see our path illuminated by the light that emanates from our founder, Juliette Gordon Low. Her curiosity, passion, and inventiveness will guide us, and our young girls, into a world where women are full and equitable stakeholders…May our songs lead the way! Let our voices, young and old, carry this message through our music! Let's joyfully Sing Out about it! After all... We are the GIRL SCOUTS®… WHERE GIRLS GROW STRONG!”
