Is your daughter entering Kindergarten in the fall and interested in
Girl Scouts? Please join us for an informational Zoom meeting on the evening
of Wednesday, April 28 to learn more. The call time and the Zoom link is
available by emailing us at: gshnjserviceunit81@gmail.com.
We'd also like to acknowledge that it's still Girl Scout cookie
season! As with all Girl Scout activities, safety is the top priority during this
cookie sale. You may see fewer Scouts going door to door in our neighborhoods
and likely fewer booths in front of businesses, but there are other ways to
purchase. If you know a Girl Scout, you can request a link to her Digital
Cookie page, which is an online order form. If you do not know a Scout
and would like to buy cookies, please reach out to us via email at:
gshnjserviceunit81@gmail.com and we can help! Although we think
the cookies are delicious on their own, it can be fun to use them as ingredients
for other culinary treats. The following is one of our new favorite recipes –
maybe it will become one of your family's as well!
