Board of Directors
As a volunteer organization, Girl Scouts of the Missouri Heartland
has a volunteer board of directors composed of adult women and men who
serve our membership. The combined expertise of these community
members provides the leadership to set the direction of the council
and establish the policies and bylaws that guide us.
The board development committee is seeking a diverse, highly
qualified pool of candidates for a limited number of board and/or

qualifications, experience, and interest in helping to guide an
organization with the goal of building girls of courage, confidence,
and character, who make the world a better place, please submit a nomination form.

Delegates
There are two different types of Girl Scout Delegates: council
delegates and national delegates. Council Delegates have the right to
vote at the GSMH Annual Business Meeting on items such as electing
officers, considering amendments to council bylaws, and key issues
affecting the council and Girl Scouts of the USA, and other business
appropriate to come before the corporation. National Delegates attend
the GSUSA national session which is held every three years to vote on
proposals and constitutional changes, be the voice for GSMH
membership, help set the strategic direction, and help establish
requirements for credentials. If you have any questions, email
Executive Assistant Missy
Cravens or call 877-312-4764.
