Service Unit Directors/Service Teams, please share the attached Teen Awards Booklet with middle and high school Girl Scouts. This booklet will be e-mailed to teens early next week whose e-mails we have on file. It will not be mailed – please share with all.

Girls who have completed Teen Awards or wish to apply for service awards/scholarships will need to complete and submit the Teen Awards Packet forms and/or their Silver and Gold Final Reports by April 20 to any Service Center or e-mailed to ahornby@gsmists.org.

This information will be placed on the website as well early next week. The Teen Awards are taking place in Grand Rapids at Frederik Meijer Gardens on May 19. If you have any questions please contact Andrea Hornby at the Traverse City Service Center at 866-566-7434 or 231-947-7354 x 231.

Girl Scout Night at the Whitecaps – three flyers attached: one for the game; one to take part in activities at the ball park that night; the other for a ball park campout another night.
