Tomorrow some of us will get to watch the Macy's Parade and see the GS Float.
Our Interim CEO is posting about it here, on her Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/SylviaEliaAcevedo/.
You can tell she is excited. I would be, too! She is riding in the float. Be watching, she says - - she will pick either BLUE or GREEN Girl Scout tennis shoes to wear.
Here is a neat meme from Girl Scouts of Nassau County for Thanksgiving.

Via Girl Scouts of North-Central Alabama and GSUSA:
"Small changes and gestures add up, bridging divides and strengthening communities."
1. Practice empathy and promote inclusion
2. Be a friend to those who need one.
3. Volunteer
4. Don't get discouraged.
