Some highlights of our year...

Thinking Day 2009:

stepdance

The girls enjoyed learning and watching multi-cultural dance. They learned Indian dance (Kuchipudi style) by students of Prafulla Velury (Providence, RI), Middle Eastern dance (Raks Sharqi) by Sardis, a teacher at the Springstep School (Medford, MA), as well as Irish Step dancing, performed by students of Kathleen Flaherty, (Heavey-Quinn Academy of Irish Dance).

Encampment 2009 : "Magic for Muggles"

At our Harry Potter themed "Magic for Muggles" encampment girls had an opportunity to participate in many exciting themed events. We performed the Tri-Wizard Tournament on the low ropes course. We went to Potions class and made ice cream. We watched a fun magician and finished off the weekend with games in the field and s'mores!

Did you know that Girl Scouting provides opportunities for girls AND adults to gain skills in leadership, life, technology, and citizenship, as well as outdoor skills? Are you aware that it is a flexible, fun program for all school-aged girls AND adults? Or that girls AND adults love it because it allows them to have fun while forming meaningful lasting friendships?

Membership is flexible. Girls and adults can join a troop OR they can take part in programs individually. Adult volunteers can choose between short and long term positions. They can offer to share a skill or hobby at a one time event, or to mentor a group of girls for a year. More info ..
