ANNOUNCEMENTS 

 

Thanks for Rocking the Fair with us!

Over 15,000 Girl Scouts, alumnae and their families ROCKED the OC Fair on Friday!  It was a day filled with memories that will last a lifetime - thousands of Girl Scouts kicked off the day with unstoppable energy at the Rockin' Rally, Juliette Gordon Low got into the groove with our flash mob, and over a thousand girls bridged to the next level of Girl Scouting - just to name a few highlights.  We hope you had as much fun as we did!

So many amazing activities, but not enough time to see it all!  Upload your top 10 photos or videos from Rock the Fair to the Flickr Group so we can all experience what we might have missed.  Follow these Flickr Instructions.
