May 7 is Girl Scout Sunday. All units in this area are sponsored by churches, so that Sunday girls will attend, as a troop, the church which sponsors their troop (St. Roch’s or Grace). By attending as a troop, the people of the church are aware that there is Scouting going on in the community and that the church has a part in it.
The next big event for Seniors is Senior week-end at Cedarledge, April 2- 3-4. The plans are great – and include a mini course in auto mechanics (about jump cables and such), repelling, canoeing, quilling, a sock hop divided into sessions for dances of the 20’s, the 30’s, etc .,then from 11 p.m. til dawn (or collapse whichever comes first) a dance marathon. After that, the Sunday plans seem scant; breakfast, Scout’s Own and home.
