Girl Scout Troop 1752 has been very active earning their Fun and Fitness Badges and Adventure Sports badges. We would like to extend a very special thank you to Lisa Garnett for teaching our troop Zumba. Mrs. Garnett came out to Berlin Elementary and spent an hour of great fun with the girls teaching them all the Zumba moves to the latest music. The junior girl scouts had an amazing time and loved all the dance moves. Who knew exercise could be such fun? Lisa teaches classes at the Petersburgh Veterans Memorial Community Center on Monday evenings from 5:30 to 6:30 and on Thursday evenings from 6 to 7.
The girls also spent a separate fabulous afternoon kayaking and canoeing at Dyken Pond with the wonderful staff there. The girls were especially thrilled with Mr. Trevor. For most of the girls, this was their first time in a kayak or canoe, and he was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. Although the weather was a little chilly, it was an exciting fun filled day for all. We would like to thank everyone at Dyken Pond for a great afternoon.
Girl Scouts provides wonderful opportunities for girls ages 5-18 to try new experiences in a fun and safe atmosphere. If you would like to learn more about girl scouts in the Stephentown, Berlin, Petersburgh and Grafton areas, please contact Kathy Despart at kdespart@aim.com.
