Dear Girl Scout Family
Preparations for fall continue throughout the council. The new "I can't wait to .." Fall Recruitment campaign is being incorporated into many of our 100 registration nights as volunteers and staff plan fun activities that fit with the text of the campaign (such as hula hoops, super-capes, and more).
In and amidst the excitement, I've connected with some amazing alumnae who are helping "behind the scenes."
Please join me in thanking all the women (and men) who lend their experience and time "behind the scenes" to make this organization great!
