NEWS - NEWS - NEWS!
Things are gearing up for the new Girl Scout year for Warren County, Area 17 and Beyond!
Event Happenings
We will have better Event news here in Warren County and Area 17 this year (2015-16), the new Recruitment Committee has met and will be going to local high schools and the date and location has been chosen for the Annual Meeting. Desserts First (A BIG Louisville fundraiser) has a date too, and prices. Back to School is coming SOON! Locally, August 11th, I think.
Event News: We will have better control over events and news about them this year, with a new checks system for these. This is a good thing! I will scan and put a Proofreading "sticker" on here to help people know what to look for.
Recruitment is starting soon at local High Schools
The Recruitment Committee has started up with new people! Our new Chair for Warren County is Alicia B. Thanks for stepping up to do this, Alicia! :-) Also, the Vice Chair for Recruitment this year is Jonetta B. They would love to have helpers!
New Vice-Chairs for local Warren County Service Unit!
We have new Co-Vice-Chairs for many committees. We will post about that later. Hopefully Betsy S. and Amanda D. will be helping our Chair, Sue L. with flyers and more.
Warren County SU Kickoff (for Chairs and Vice Chairs) is soon, at the end of this month. We will have more attendees this year, with Vice Chairs of Committees also invited now.
