August section of the UNofficial Calendar. A reminder.

What's going on in August?

From the UNofficial Calendar. Updated today on the page.

Caveat: We now have a new Activities List on our Girl Scouts of Kentuckiana website for all Council activities. Sign in using MYGS to access this, then Member Profile, then Events.




Always double check each Council date by going to the official GSKYANA Events List, in case of errors or cancellations. We try to have many Council and Volunteer-sponsored events here, to help Volunteers plan ahead.

NOT ALL EVENTS ARE LISTED HERE. If you do not see an event here that you would like added, send to lizann447@yahoo.com (Betsy Sheppard) and I will list it here for you. THIS IS AN INCOMPLETE, UNOFFICIAL CALENDAR.
