Rangers - For girls aged 15 to 17+

Rangers offers girls three different options:  Cadets, Junior Leaders or Rangers.  Cadets and Junior Leaders develop practical leadership skills by assisting in units of younger girls.  Rangers participate in activity-based programs that they organize themselves, while leaders act as resource people who help them to achieve their goals.

Lones - For girls aged 5 to 17+

LonesLones is for girls who are unable to attend regular unit meetings due to distance, health concerns, work, studies, or physical challenges.  Lones carry out their program through correspondence, online activities and events.  A Guide leader helps to connect Lones to others in their area and to the greater Guiding community.

 

Extra-Ops

Girl GuidesExtraordinary Options, or "Extra Ops," are opportunities for girls with specialized interests to benefit from the unique and enriching experience that Guiding has to offer.  They include GirlSports and Trex.

 

 

Trex (12+)

Trex opens exciting avenues of adventure and challenge to girls who want to spend their Guiding time enjoying Canada's great outdoors.  Trex isn't for every girl, but it is for any girl who wants to test herself physically, mentally, and emotionally, doing things she may not have had the opportunity to try before.

GirlSports (5-17+)

We know that girls want to be active and involved in real-life experiences.  GirlSports is another opportunity for girls to have fun in bold, energetic activities with their friends.  Teamwork is emphasized as girls learn to play by the rules, develop new skills, respect others and develop self-confidence while being active.
