Out & About with Daisies & Brownies
Connect and learn about troops in our council!
March is Month of Service!
Daisies
and
Brownies
have been logging hours, sorting food, hosting drives and giving back to their communities in all different ways! Don't forget to log your troop's projects to receive the Month of Service patch!
Girl Scout Daisy Troop 1678 from Overland Park, KS set up a Care Package event using some of their cookie proceeds to purchase items to compile into care packages for our military women and men serving overseas. In addition to the great homes from home, these Girl Scouts also decorated thank you cards to put inside each box. What a fantastic gift to our courageous soldiers!
Girl Scouts with BIG HEARTS! We give a HUGE SHOUT OUT to the more than 70
Girl Scouts from SU 808 in St. Joseph, MO and their troop leaders / family members who spent part of Girl Scout Week at Second Harvest Food Bank rotating stations and packing backpack snack packs and more. These Girl Scouts worked hard but had a blast together making a difference!
