Girl Scouts

Vaqueras

Discover + Connect + Take Action = Leadership Through Horses

Vaqueras, Spanish for cowgirls, enhance their skills by sharing their love and knowledge of horses with other Girl Scouts.  This is a true leadership role in that girls care for and prepare the horses for ring and trail rides as well as help all other Girl Scouts during their horse programs.  Girl Scouts provides leadership programming through horses to more than 3,000 girls each year.  Click here to learn more about our horse programs.
