Central Girl Scout Update

By  | 

Submitted by Yolanda Johnson
    Girl Scout Service Unit 104 would like to thank the Central community for its support of the 2013 Girl Scout cookie sales. A combined total of 14,844 boxes of cookies were sold by all of the Central Girl Scout troops. Of that total, 259 were donated to our “Gift of Caring” community service projects whose recipients included The Care Center, Capital Area Domestic Violence Shelter, Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA), St. Vincent de Paul, Wounded Warrior Project, and the Central Fire Dept. Because of your generosity our Central Girl Scouts were offered the opportunity to attend a weekend camping trip in March at Camp Marydale which included Horse and Pony rides.  The scouts will also be able to participate in “Survival” themed Camping in May at Camp Whispering Pines.  Camp activities will include zip line, rock wall climbing, swimming, boating, and so much more.  
    If you are interested in more information in registering a girl or about volunteering as an adult, please contact Jennifer Ackoury at (225) 610-6656. See more Girl Scout photos at www.centralspeaks.com.
