Girl Scouting in South Carolina
As of January 2007 there are five Girl Scout council offices in South Carolina; however, Girl Scouts is in the process of realigning councils mostly by merging old councils.
In addition two councils headquartered in other states serve girls in South Carolina.
- Girl Scouts Hornets' Nest Council in North Carolina includes York, South Carolina
- Girl Scouts of Historic Georgia in Georgia includes Aiken, Allendale, Bamberg, Barnwell Edgefield, McCormick, Jasper, and Hampton counties.

Famous quotes containing the words girl, south and/or carolina:
“I do not know if you remember the tale of the girl who saves the ship under mutiny by sitting on the powder barrel with her lighted torch ... and all the time knowing that it is empty? This has seemed to me a charming image of the women of my time. There they were, keeping the world in order ... by sitting on the mystery of life, and knowing themselves that there was no mystery.”
—Isak Dinesen [Karen Blixen] (1885–1962)
“The white gulls south of Victoria
catch tossed crumbs in midair.
When anyone hears the Catbird
he gets lonesome.”
—Gary Snyder (b. 1930)
“I hear ... foreigners, who would boycott an employer if he hired a colored workman, complain of wrong and oppression, of low wages and long hours, clamoring for eight-hour systems ... ah, come with me, I feel like saying, I can show you workingmen’s wrong and workingmen’s toil which, could it speak, would send up a wail that might be heard from the Potomac to the Rio Grande; and should it unite and act, would shake this country from Carolina to California.”
—Anna Julia Cooper (1859–1964)
