==Girl Scouting in Utah== {{Infobox WorldScouting |name=Girl Scouting in Utah |image=Utah-gsusa.svg |caption=Map of Girl Scout Councils in Utah }} Two [[Girl Scouts of the USA|Girl Scout]] councils serve Utah. ===History=== Girl Scouting in Utah started in 1920 in [[Ogden, Utah]] and the first troops registered in Salt Lake City in 1921. In 1961 the current major council in Utah, Girl Scouts of Utah, was founded by the merging of several smaller councils. ===Girl Scouts-Arizona Cactus-Pine Council=== In Utah, [[Scouting in Arizona|Girl Scouts-Arizona]] Cactus-Pine Council, headquartered in [[Phoenix, Arizona]], serves girls living on the [[Navajo Nation]] in southern Utah.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Girl Scouts-Arizona |url=http://www.girlscoutsaz.org |access-date=2012-05-03}}</ref> ===Girl Scouts of Utah=== Girl Scouts of Utah, headquartered in [[Salt Lake City]], serves over 9,000 girls in Utah and [[West Wendover, Nevada]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Girl Scouts of Utah |url=http://www.gsutah.org |access-date=2012-05-03}}</ref> ;Service Centers: *Northern Utah Service Center in [[Riverdale, Utah]] *Central Utah Service Center in [[Orem, Utah]] ;Camps *Camp Cloud Rim is {{convert|27|acre|km2}} at over {{convert|9000|ft|m}} by Lake Brimhall in the [[Wasatch Mountains]] near [[Park City, Utah]]. It was built by the Utah [[Works Progress Administration]] in the early 1930s. Originally named Camp Pinar, it was renamed to Camp Cloud Rim in 1937. The Lodge was destroyed by fire in 1992 but rebuilt and named the Janet Quinney Lawson Lodge. The new lodge was dedicated on August 14, 1999, and Janet Quinney Lawson was in attendance for the ceremony.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Palmer |first=Douglas |date=August 14, 1999 |title=Girl Scouts dedicating new $3 million lodge |work=The Deseret News |url=http://www.deseretnews.com/article/712553/Girl-Scouts-dedicating-new-3-million-lodge.html?pg=all |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150904101928/http://www.deseretnews.com/article/712553/Girl-Scouts-dedicating-new-3-million-lodge.html?pg=all |url-status=dead |archive-date=September 4, 2015 |access-date=30 April 2013}}</ref> In 2013, the Girl Scouts of Utah council officially bought 236 acres of land just south of Cloud Rim from Silver Islet Lake Partners. The land has a conservation easement on all but 18 acres, so the Girl Scouts plan to build some rustic cabins, but will mostly preserve the land.<ref>{{Cite news |last=O'Donoghue |first=Amy Joi |date=January 5, 2013 |title=Utah Girl Scouts complete historic land purchase, preserving neighboring open space |work=The Deseret News |url=http://www.deseretnews.com/article/865570033/Utah-Girl-Scouts-complete-historic-land-purchase-preserving-neighboring-open-space.html?pg=all |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130110163109/http://www.deseretnews.com/article/865570033/Utah-Girl-Scouts-complete-historic-land-purchase-preserving-neighboring-open-space.html?pg=all |url-status=dead |archive-date=January 10, 2013 |access-date=30 April 2013}}</ref> *Trefoil Ranch is {{convert|123|acre|km2}} near Provo, Utah.
