The Girl Scout Promise

On my honor, I will try: to serve Allah and my country,
to help people at all times, and to live by the Girl Scout Law.

The Girl Scout Law

I will do my best to be: honest and fair, friendly and helpful, considerate and caring, courageous and strong, and responsible for what I say and do, and to respect myself and others, respect authority, use resources wisely, make the world a better place, and be a sister to every Girl Scout.

MAS Scouts is a program of the Muslim American Society that seeks to provide a comprehensive character building program. Emphasis is placed on perfecting manners, social interaction, leadership qualities as well as nurturing community service awareness. The program also seeks to provide a strong representation of Muslim involvement in the local scouts arena.

The MAS Girl Scouts, based at the ISBCC and the south shore and currently serves five troops involving 58 girls. The five troops are Daisies (K-Grade 1), Brownies (Grades 2-3), Juniors (Grades 4-5), Cadets (Grades 6-8) and Seniors (Grades 9-10). The Daisies meet every other Sundays from 11am-1pm, the brownies meet every other Sundays from 9-11am, the cadets meet on the first and third Fridays at 6-7:30pm and the seniors meet every second and fourth Friday from 5-6:30pm.

The MAS Girl Scouts are registered under the Girls Scouts of America. The scouts meet twice a month to work on badge and patches. In addition, the scouts meet either once or twice a month  for projects focusing on science, outdoor activities, sports, religion and community service. In general, the girl scouts try to meet four times a month at the Randolph Scout House.

Selling cookies is one of the annual activities the girls lead every year. Other than raising funds for their troops, the girls learn a great deal of leadership, confidence, responsibility, financial and marketing skills by doing so. They also have lots of fun, meet new friends and make great yummy da’awah. Other than ISBCC, the girls also sell their cookies at local grocery stores, T stations, other Islamic centers, friends & families. Cookies are sold each year at ISBCC from December to March so be on a lookout for our cookie booths!

The following is just a snapshot of some programs and projects we do and we are expanding! Throughout the past few years, these programs include: World Thinking Day, Sadaqa Jars Project, Hajj Program, Ice Skating, Camping Skills, Ramadhan Badge Program, Pajama Party, Horseback riding, Gift Baskets for Sick Children, Maple Sugar Festival, Tapestry Fair, Bowling, Whale Watching, Movie Nights, Girls Only Pool Party, Water Drop Patch Program, Cookie Booth Sales, Amaze Journey, Plaster Fun Time, Creative Cooking, Martial Arts, Mom & Me Events and Bullying Awareness Program, Archery and Tents Up Community Service.
