Girl Scouting Needs You

September 4, 2009 By eastwickpress

Girl Scouting may be the perfect place for you. Girl Scouting is a way for girls to build confidence and courage through activities, leadership programs, community service, teamwork, travel and much more. Adult volunteers in the program share skills, enthusiasm, experience and values. And together they find a path to a better future.
Why not become a Girl Scout or an adult volunteer?
Girls in grades k-12, who reside in the Town of Hoosick and want to be a part of an organization dedicated solely to girls, where they, in an accepting and nurturing environment, build character and skills for success in the real world can join. In partnership with committed adult volunteers, girls develop qualities that will serve them all their lives, like leadership, strong values, social conscience and conviction about their own potential and self-worth.
Who can become an adult volunteer? Whether you have girls in the program or not, you can be a strong role model for young women today. Our volunteers are parents, grandparents, guardians, former scouts, teachers, college students, retirees, professionals, community members, church members, neighbors.
Still think you’re too busy or don’t know what Girl Scouts is all about? Come learn more at a Girl Scout Information Night for New Girls and Adult Volunteers on Sunday, September 20, from 6 to 7 pm at the First Baptist Church (80 Main Street, Hoosick Falls). Members of the local Girl Scout Service Unit will be available to tell you more about the program and answer questions – we know you’ll be pleasantly surprised. If you are interested in finding out more and cannot attend, please email GirlScoutsHoosick@gmail.com or call 686-1765 or 686-4942.
Girls who were registered Girl Scouts in 2008-2009 and want to renew their membership, should be in touch with their leader or Membership Organizer, Cathy Gee Graney, at GirlScoutsHoosick@gmail.com.
