15 Ways to Tell Your Girl Scout Leader "Thanks!"

Every year on April 22, Girl Scouts celebrate the volunteers who give their time and talents to make a difference in the lives of girls. Here are some ideas for how you can show your favorite Girl Scout volunteers how much they mean to you:

1. We're lucky to have you! Give your leader a lucky bamboo plant.

2. Create a memory book with troop photos and girls' favorite memories.

3. Thanks a latte! Send your leader their favorite coffee drink.

4. Give a magazine subscription.

5. Put a sign on your leader's lawn that says "Our Girl Scout leader lives here! Thank you, (fill in name)!"

6. Send a special delivery of thank you balloons.

7. Thanks for your "commit-mint!" Put together a treat bag of mint candies.

8. Create a recipe book with contributions and samples from each girl in the troop.

9. Plan a surprise picnic for your leader.

10. Thank you for helping us grow! Give your leader a plant or some fresh flowers.

11. Put together a movie night basket, complete with a DVD, popcorn and sweet treats.

12. Have each girl in the troop make a thank you sign and create a photo booklet of each girl with their sign.

13. Use the girls' fingerprints to design a thank you card.

14. We need "s'more" leaders like you. Create a s'mores kit.

15. Decorate and personalize a new mess kit for your leader.
