Welcome Our Newest Adult Member, Kylie!
Congratulations to Kylie McLaughlin who bridged to an adult last week at the Clover Hill Service Unit bridging ceremony! As the only girl to bridge to an adult in her Service Unit, she was welcomed with open arms and many hugs by the adults present. Kylie has been involved with Girl Scouts since 1999! Thanks for your continued support, Kylie! We are thrilled to have you as an adult Girl Scout member!

Girl Scout Harvest Day
July 13, 2013
 Fun for the whole family! The Food Bank of the Northern Neck has started a model community project of gleaning the produce that grocery stores can't use. This means more access to fresh, healthy food for the families of the Northern Neck. At GS Harvest Day, we will be harvesting corn for the food bank. Girls and their families will get the opportunity to get up close to agriculture and find out how the food we eat is grown. Please bring your own picnic lunch to enjoy after the work is done!
