Learn About the Fun of Girl Scouting at BW Scouts’ September 4 Cookout

The Girl Scouts of Ohio’s Heart­land Coun­cil and Big Wal­nut Girl Scouts invite you to attend a Wel­come to Girl Scouts Cook­out! Join us 6 to 8 p.m. on Tues­day, Sep­tem­ber 4, at Sun­bury United Methodist Church, 100 West Cherry Street in Sun­bury. We’ll have hot dogs, chips and lemon­ade, and infor­ma­tion about how to start your excit­ing Girl Scout jour­ney. Learn about Girl Scout mem­ber­ship open to all girls in grades K through Grade 12.

Girl Scouts now offers six path­ways to start your Girl Scouts jour­ney: Events, Series, Camp, Travel, Troop and Vir­tual. The troop path­way is the tra­di­tional way girls have par­tic­i­pated in Girl Scouts. Troops are still very pop­u­lar and a won­der­ful way to be involved, how­ever now there are a num­ber of ways to be involved in scout­ing. Now, you have your own options and choices about how YOU expe­ri­ence Girl Scouts. Today you have all these opportunities:

• EVENTS: Come on your own or with a friend to events cen­tered on top­ics that inter­est you.

• SERIES: Explore your inter­ests in a series of activ­i­ties with­out com­mit­ting to a full year.

• CAMP: Expe­ri­ence the great out­doors at overnight or day camp.

• TRAVEL: Travel across town, through­out the coun­try, or around the world.

• TROOP: Par­tic­i­pate in excit­ing activ­i­ties that last through­out the school year.

• VIRTUAL: Com­ing soon! Inter­act online with girls and vol­un­teers in a safe, secure online environment.

You may start on one path­way and change your mind and take part in another. Or, you may decide to par­tic­i­pate in more than one path­way. The first step is sim­ply being a girl who wants to make choices about her own path. Mix and match based on your inter­ests and cre­ate your own jour­ney filled with won­der­ful adventures!

Par­ents can also find out about vol­un­teer oppor­tu­ni­ties with Girl Scouts: share your skills, spend time with your daugh­ter and her friends, and make new friends. Find the oppor­tu­nity and time com­mit­ment that works for you! Join us Sep­tem­ber 4!

2012 is the Year of the Girl as Girl Scouts cel­e­brates 100 years!
