HB 654 North Carolina House · 2025-2026 Session

Adopt Girl Scouts Week.

HB 654 designates the week containing March 12 each year as "Girl Scouts Week" in North Carolina. This ceremonial bill recognizes Girl Scouts of the USA's history and the achievements of Gold Award recipients, who complete community-focused leadership projects. It does not create new policies, funding, or obligations - it simply establishes an annual observance period for celebration. The bill directly affects public recognition efforts by state and local governments, schools, and community groups.
