The Scout Guide Baton Rouge

Happy Fourth of July, Baton Rouge! 🇺🇸

Today we’re celebrating the community, small businesses, and local traditions that make our city feel like home. Wishing you a day filled with family, friends, and plenty of red, white, and blue.

Happy Independence Day! ❤️🤍💙

Meet Maggie Gladney ✨ We’re thrilled to welcome Maggie Gladney as the new Associate Editor of The Scout Guide Baton Rouge.

A Baton Rouge native, Maggie returned home after college and a career in public relations and marketing to raise her family in the city she loves. Her passion for supporting local businesses, building meaningful relationships, and creating memorable experiences makes her a natural fit for The Scout Guide community.

As a mother of two young boys, Maggie knows firsthand the importance of the small businesses that shape a city—those that create gathering places, celebrate milestones, and make Baton Rouge a wonderful place to live, work, and raise a family.

Over the coming months, you’ll find Maggie out scouting the best of Baton Rouge, visiting members, delivering guides, and connecting with the entrepreneurs who make our city so special.

Be sure to say hello when she stops by—or better yet, reach out and introduce yourself. She’d love to learn more about you and your business. We can’t wait for you to meet her. 💛💜
