New troop in Dover is making new friends and ready to learn
DOVER, NH – Girl Scout Troop 62042 has been very active since forming in December, learning life skills that will serve them well as they grow up. The troop includes 10 Daisies in first grade from the Dover area.
Troop leader Jody Bird said, “We started out slow with a goal of getting to know each other and forming new friendships, but over the last few months the girls have also learned about recycling and upcycling, identifying and celebrating each of their unique traits, ways to be kind and much more. They did this all while busting out some sweet dance moves during our dance parties which the girls have deemed a requirement at every troop meeting. The girls most recently worked on their Respect Authority petal by visiting our local police station and touring the facility with one of our local police officers.”
She along with co-leader Mackenzie Eaton and the troop are looking forward to more fun outings, including local hikes, an engineering class and participating in their community's bridging ceremony.

We Are Girl Scouts
Girl Scouts bring their dreams to life and work together to build a better world. Through programs from coast to coast, Girl Scouts of all backgrounds and abilities can be unapologetically themselves as they discover their strengths and rise to meet new challenges—whether they want to climb to the top of a tree or the top of their class, lace up their boots for a hike or advocate for climate justice, or make their first best friends. Backed by trusted adult volunteers, mentors, and millions of alums, Girl Scouts lead the way as they find their voices and make changes that affect the issues most important to them.
