Girl Scouts around our council are always active – camping,
traveling, doing service projects, and making the world a better
place. Girl Scouts of the Green and White Mountains invites all Girl
Scouts in our council to share photos of their adventures,
achievements, projects, and more. Send your photos to us at customercare@girlscoutsgwm.org.
Be sure to include a description of the event, your troop number and
levels involved, when it took place, and any other relevant
information.
Ambassador Troop 10085 in Hooksett, NH, designed, built and installed this sign for the outdoor classroom at Cawley Middle School in Hooksett about four years ago. The original letters were damaged, so they repainted with help from Jim Walsh of Frank’s Signs. It was installed on Saturday, May 25. Pictured are Sheila Shamel, co-leader; Catey Crain; Charlotte Clement; Carley Crain; and Karren Crain, leader.
