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.
Fall Product turns into climbing adventure, high aspirations for cookie sales
Girl Scout Brownie Troop 58700 from Newport, Goshen, Lempster and
Claremont, NH, saw the new climbing adventure badge and it was their
top choice to earn this year. They had never sold Fall Product before,
but set a goal to sell enough to fund this trip. They more than
doubled that goal and so once all the calendars aligned, 10 girls
climbed as troop on January 26.
Troop Leader Sarah Mills
said “I’m so proud of these girls! They learned goal setting with
their sales. Today some of them were nervous about heights, but they
each got a little higher with every climb. Others were fearless as
they reached the top without hesitating. They all cheered on their
troop mates and called out holds if needed as the others climbed. Our
girls LOVE the new badges and the families are loving how they’re
growing through (Girl) Scouts.”
The girls are now
determining their goals for Girl Scout Cookie sales. Mills said “On an
individual level, several of my girls are trying to maximize their
cookie dough to go to Farnsworth this summer and/or do some council
day or weekend camp programs. On a troop level, seven of my 10 are
third graders and they’re all wanting to earn Bronze awards, so
they’re saving most of their cookie money to build the troop account
for next year when they start working towards Bronze.”
Londonderry Girl Scouts plan Target Sports Day
The Londonderry Fish and Game Club welcomed Girl Scout Troop 10318 of Londonderry on January 28 to listen to a proposal in hosting an invitational Girl Scout Community event.
