Welcome to Girl Scout Jr. Troop 41303



 
Good Day!

Our website (http://gstroop41303.scoutlander.com/) serves as your source for all troop related information: meetings, activities and events, etc., so visit often!.
This is a secure site and access to details is for members only, but please browse around our public site to learn more us.

2013/2014 SCHOOL YEAR
As Juniors we partner with 5th grade girls to help each girl discover who she can be and what she can do, wherever she chooses to put her energies.  A girl's leadership potential blooms among other girls – away from school pressures, social cliques, and boys – where she can be herself and try new things. Girls learn by doing, and the learning that takes place in Girl Scouting is fun, inspirational and cooperative, not competitive. Each girl can "try on" different leadership roles by participating in a wide variety of activities. Then she can grow into the ones that fit her best.

So join us and let the journey begin!

MEETINGS:   Regular Troop Meetings are usually held twice a month on Mondays, 2:30 PM -4:00 PM at Iroquois Community School in the Art Room. See calendar for details.

SNACKS:      
We have a rotating snack schedule provided by each family. See snack schedule for details.
