HAPPY GIRL SCOUT THINKING DAY!

It's here!  February 22!  Girl Scout Thinking Day!  We are supposed to think about Girl Scouts around the world.  Check out yesterday's post on the GS USA blog: http://blog.girlscouts.org

Our troop always participates in our Service Unit's Thinking Day event.  Each troop studies and presents a different country, we try yummy food and have some fun with SWAPS.  As a troop, we also try to work on our Global Action Award.  The 2014 theme is Education Opens Doors for all girls and boys.  It's really easy for your girls to earn this award and the patch can be worn on the FRONT of their sash/vest because its an "official GSUSA" patch!@

So as you're cleaning up and organizing today (especially if you are snowed in!), start collecting all those extra children's books around your place and donate them to a local literacy group.  Here are some ideas:
