ANNOUNCEMENTS
Adjusted Shop/Office Hours 
The GSCV office and retail shop will be opening at 1:00pm on Thursday, September 15, 2016 due to an all staff meeting.  
Customer Engagement Initiative Update
Together with GSUSA, our council will implement the Customer Engagement Initiative (CEI) in the spring of 2017. From a faster and easier joining and renewal process for the 2017-2018 membership year to improved resources for volunteers, these interactive and user-friendly improvements are all about better serving our Girl Scout members and volunteers. The Customer Engagement Initiative is all about helping volunteers get what they need when they need it.

This exciting process will include a refreshed GSCV website that will be consistent with the Girl Scout brand and aligned with other councils across the country. Our website refresh will occur September 20 from 2-4pm; therefore, comgirlscouts.org will be down for maintenance during that 2-hour time frame.  

What's Next?
As our CEI team makes progress, we will be sure to keep you in the loop! So stay tuned for our new website launching soon!
