He suggest Trail Life, among other groups, as an alternative:

"...I list here for your consideration acceptable alternatives for our Catholic children and youth, should you wish to offer this in your parish and/or school. There are two very good alternatives to the Girl Scouts of America. They are: American Heritage Girls (americanheritagegirls.org), which has a National Catholic Committee; Little Flowers’ Girls Clubs (eccehomopress.com); and Federation of North American Explorers (fneexplorers.com). There are three alternatives to the Boy Scouts of America, which are acceptable. They are: Federation of North American Explorers (fneexplorers.com); Columbian Squires (kofc.org/un/en/squires); and Trail Life USA (traillifeusa.com), which has a National Catholic Committee in Front Royal, VA."

My daughter does American Heritage Girls. Quite good, dominated by the classing badge-earning(!) structure.

At her mother’s insistence, she’s also been doing Girl Scouts, which is little more than crafts & games and getting patches for showing up at amusing events.
