Junior Troop 712 spent Valentine’s Day at Giving The Basics. They sorted products donated from SU 694 and 674’s Thinking Day and also packaged cases of lotion and bar soap. They also asked classmates to make “you are loved” notes during their class Valentine party the day before and included in care packages with the hygiene products! The girls brought
Giving The Basics staff some Thanks-A-Lots as their way of thanking this AWESOME organization and GSKSMO community partner for making the world a better place.
Troop 3105 - Kansas City, MO
Girl Scout Troop 3105 is a hardworking group of girls! This multi-level troop volunteered with Hope Faith Ministries. Some of their younger girls helped organize the clothing closet. They did a fantastic job as they were able to get all of the clothes hung up and shoes sorted into pairs. The older girls helped serve lunch to the people that visited!
Troop 4132 - Lee's Summit, MO

Camp Tongawood Wins Award
Camp Tongawood Received the Bankers Wildlife Award for Habitat Conservation from the Kansas Dept. of Wildlife Award! In 2013, the Girl Scouts partnered with Natural Resources Conservation Service to implement a special easement program called the LTP – Wetlands Reserve Program out at Camp Tongawood. The goal for this 5-year program was to establish a recreational trail for the purpose of educating girls on wildlife habitats and water resources, with a special emphasis on migratory water birds. We were approved in 2018 to extend the program and we will be able to educate girls for years to come!
