Hoosac School Hosts Girl Scout Day Camp

In early August the Hoosac School athletic fields became a campground for the Hoosick Falls Girl Scout day camp. Fifty area girls attended the camp. The theme this year was TV game shows. Girls made games, played TV game show games, hiked, made crafts, enjoyed the outdoors between storms, had a cookout, did a clean up project for part of Tibbits Forrest and concluded their experience by having an American Idol show with scouts being the performers and scout leaders being the judges. Everyone had a great time. Special thanks to the Hoosac School who hosted this event. This camp is usually held at HF Central School but because of construction at HFCS it had to be relocated. Thanks to all the volunteer leaders, helpers and first-aiders volunteering their time and talents so the program was affordable for the girls. This camp operates yearly under Rensselaer County guidelines and permits for all HF girls grades 1 through 6 to attend.
