New Forum

Category: Announcements – Leader – 12:24 pm

We are setting up a new forum! This forum will be for girls wishing to discuss girl scouts and other subjects and will go along with the Cadettes working on the Exploring the Net Interest Project Award. Reading and signing the Internet Safety Pledge is a must. Only girls in the troop can participate as this is a closed forum.

We will have fun things for all the girls soon such as games and polls.

Our programs have to be made current.”
