Pam Saltenberger became Chief Executive Officer of the Tierra del Oro Girl Scout council in 1996, overseeing its successful merge with Muir Trail to become Girl Scouts Heart of Central California (GSHCC) in 2007. Before she joined GSHCC, she worked as a top administrator in the insurance industry for over 20 years, and was the first female Vice President of a major California-based insurance company as well as the first female President of the Sacramento Chapter of Chartered Life Underwriters.

Active in both the local community and the national Girl Scout movement, Pam currently serves on the Crocker Art Museum Board and was one of two (out of 317) Girl Scout executive directors invited to sit on GSUSA’s National Visioning Team in 2002. She is also a Board member for Sac Prep Charter School, a tuition-free public school in South Sacramento, and will be its Board chair in 2013. As a proud former Girl Scout, she displays her Girl Scout Junior vest on her office wall.
