Girl Scouts of Southeastern New England has partnered with Rhode Island PBS Kids Club to bring a unique new patch opportunity to Girl Scouts in our council! PBS believes that everyone in America deserves great media—so for more than 50 years, PBS has provided people of every age and interest with a classroom, a passport, and a stage for the arts. PBS programming is free, educational, and fun—public broadcasting stations are the ones who gave us favorites like Sesame Street, Arthur, and Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood! The GSSNE and Rhode Island PBS Kids Club Patch Program gives Girl Scouts the chance to learn more about the opportunities and resources that WSBE Rhode Island PBS—your local PBS station—provides to you and everyone in your community.
