Jan Verhage Spirit of Leadership Award

The Spirit of Leadership Award was instituted by GSCNC in 2010 in honor of Jan Verhage, the Executive Director of Nation's Capital from 1985 - 2010. Jan's commitment to the troop experience allowed many girls to reach their full potential through Girl Scout principals and tradition.  Her legacy of selfess commitment has inspired many a girl and adult volunteer. To be honored with this award is to exemplify Jan's outstanding courage, confidence and character in leadership. To read Diane Tipton's remarks introducing this award, click here.
