Troop 219 is Darien’s newest troop and is ALL GIRLS!

For more than five decades, the Boy Scouts of America has been welcoming young women into its Venturing, Exploring, Sea Scouts and STEM Scouts programs. And in February 2019, the BSA further expanded that legacy by welcoming young women into Scouts BSA.

Darien Scouts jumped on the bandwagon and started it’s ALL GIRLS Troop 219 immediately.

Through participation in all-girl troops, young women that join Scouts BSA will learn from the same program, earn the same merit badges and achieve the same advancements that boys have earned for nearly 109 years in the Boy Scout program.

For more than 100 years, the pinnacle of the Scouting experience for some has been achieving the highest rank of Eagle Scout. Now, young women can begin the journey toward that goal, and the BSA will ensure that all new Scouts BSA members have a fair opportunity to earn the prestigious Eagle Scout rank.
