Wendy Damonte (Anchor KTVN Channel 2 News)
Mercedes de la Garza (AIA, Principal, Mercedes de la Garza Architect Studio)
Mary Fischer (Founder, GROW)
Laura Zander (Founder, Jimmy Beans Wool)
This event is Girl Scouts' largest fundraiser of the year, and we would love to invite you or your business to partner with Girl Scouts of the Sierra Nevada! Girl Scout volunteers may purchase discounted tickets for $55.

Name That Girl Scout!
We found a few photos tucked away in an old box labeled "1999 Miscellaneous." Do you recognize any of the Girl Scouts or volunteers in the photos? Are you in one of the photos?
Help us keep our Girl Scout history alive through your stories, songs, badges, and memories. Contact Allie Erger at aerger@gssn.org - we want to know the back-story! If you have any other special pictures from your Girl Scout days, send them in! We would love to share them with our council.

Invest in Girl Scouts
You were once a Girl Scout, and now is your chance to give back to girls in your local community to help them have the experience of a lifetime. Our commitment to the mission of Girl Scouts remains strong. But now, more than ever, we need to reach out to all girls in our communities and offer programs and activities that encourage their leadership development.
The ability of our local Girl Scout council to meet the needs of our membership depends on a shared commitment by parents, volunteers, Girl Scout alumnae and other friends in our community. Many people assume that the Girl Scout cookie sale covers all of our funding needs. The reality, however, is that just 70 percent of our operating budget is supported by the sale. If we are to ensure the growth of the Girl Scout program locally, we need to secure adequate funding from a variety of sources to make up the difference. In support of these efforts, we request that you consider making a contribution to the Girl Scouts of the Sierra Nevada today.
Your support speaks to your belief in the time-honored values of the Girl Scout program. Together, we can continue the tradition of providing girls with the experiences that impart beliefs, values, and principles that strengthen their leadership skills and abilities, their service toward others, and their resilience to handle challenging situations in their lives.
Thank you for supporting Girl Scouts in your community.
