OKLAHOMA CITY-- The Girl Scouts of Western Oklahoma says many girls who want to join the organization have been left out, because of the lack of enough volunteers.
Girl Scouts spokesperson Deborah Gooding says about 250 girls are on a wait list, and at least 50 volunteers are needed.
Beka Davis, Girl Scouts volunteer, says you can help in a variety of ways, and it only takes about an hour a week.
"Work with these girls on anything from self esteem to health and nutrition, to our anti-bullying module. Just the things that help them to become self-confident and good leaders," said Davis.
Last month, the Girl Scouts announced they have to close two of their camps due to limited finances.
