Inspiring Women of Iowa

The Inspiring Women of Iowa luncheon celebrates three inspiring women in our community, with proceeds benefitting Girl Scouts of Greater Iowa. 

Learn More

Our event honors three women, one in each of the following categories: Courage, Confidence, and Character. Nominees can be anyone regardless of Girl Scout history – but they should be able to demonstrate that they have used courage, confidence or character in their daily lives.

The nominees can be amazing artists, savvy business leaders or the unsung hero in our community. They could be your mentor, your sister or someone who has inspired you at some point in your life.

The Inspiring Women of Iowa luncheon takes place each spring.

Visit inspiringwomenofiowa.com for more information on nominations and the event!

Gimme S'more Mud Run

The Gimme S’more Mud Run is a family mud obstacle run that takes place each fall at Camp Sacajawea in Boone. 

Learn More

You’ll have a muddy good time as you trudge through the mud pits and through the woods. Our family runners (ages 8 and up, please!) take on three miles of terrain filled with obstacles.  Our littlest muddy buddies (ages 4 and up) can get in on the fun, with our modified 1-mile course with pint-sized obstacles built just for them.

Visit smoremudrun.com to learn more!

 

Volunteer

You can take your Girl Scout support to the next level by becoming a volunteer! You'll introduce girls to new experiences that show them they’re capable of more than they ever imagined. 

You’ll be their cheerleader, guide, and mentor, helping them develop essential life skills and confidence that will last a lifetime. Imagine the excitement, the impact, the memories made—those are the moments you’ll share at Girl Scouts.
