girl scouts of the colonial coast
All of us are changing our lives and adjusting to the new "norm" as we pull together to fight this pandemic. Many organizations have been affected by the COVID-19, including Girl Scouts. We've found a few ways to keep the spirit of Girl Scouts going strong.
GSCCC is helping members stay connected through our at home program where families can find resources on the Just For Me page on our website. Girls are taking virtual adventures to Discover, Connect and Take Action. And volunteers are receiving training and resources to help them engage with girls in new ways. GSCCC is also inviting girls - rising kindergartners and those currently in kindergarten - to join and be part of a virtual troop series!
Along with finding ways to serve girls and their families, a few staff who work with the Community Troop team have taken action to create activity packets and have delivered them to agencies that continue to serve children, such as day cares ran by the YMCA and For Kids. Hundreds of activity kits have been placed in the hands of children who may not have the luxury of having computers at home.
We know we will be finding more innovative ways to engage with each other and to carry out the Girl Scout Leadership Experience to girls. Be on the lookout next week for a challenge to get ready for the 2021 Cookie Classic, From Couch to 5K.
