Shark Bait

Girl Scout Troop 12345

Our Programs

Backpacking & Hiking Program

Shark Bait has an extensive backpacking and hiking program! Troop members can start with the basics of hiking and backpacking and eventually build up to long-term backpacking trips with the troop!

Leadership Program

Girl Scouts can run for election within the troop and gain leadership experience as Patrol Leaders, Troop Ambassadors for events, and potentially even become President or Vice President of Shark Bait!

Gold & Silver Award Coaching

Our leaders are very familiar with the requirements and processes of earning Gold and Silver Awards. They help guide troop members on the path to earning these prestigious awards!

…and more!

Why Join Us?

Shark Bait is a multi-level legacy troop of Girl Scouts including Cadettes (6th to 8th grade), Seniors (9th and 10th grade) and Ambassadors (11th and 12th grade). We are based in Rancho Palos Verdes, California. Each year we have between 60-75 Girl Scouts registered from around the Los Angeles South Bay Area. In our troop, Cadettes are lovingly called “Chum” and Seniors and Ambassadors are called “Sharks”. Shark Bait is led by a leadership team made of girls and voted by the girls. The adult leaders, aka “Anchors”, supervise the troop’s events and programming. We offer year-round programming and run multiple large events each year.
