Electronic Magazine By Girls For Girls

Girl Scout Publications Just For Girls - The Lime Green Giraffe, a "by girls, for girls" publication targeted to 11-17 Girl Scouts is now available online. In the past, the publication was printed and mailed to older scouts. Because so many girls reach for technology first, they now publish the magazine electronically at http://www.girlscoutsnwga.org/LGG/default.asp. You may want to check this out.
