The Marin del Centro Girl Scouts is made up

USA, just north of San Francisco and the Golden Gate Bridge. Over 500

that are available in this beautiful location!
Our Communities
We live in towns nestled at the base of Mount
Tamalpais: Corte Madera, Larkspur, Kentfield, Ross, San Anselmo, Greenbrae,
Fairfax, Lagunitas, Forest Knolls and Nicasio.

for troops and girls to better serve the girls and meet the goals of
