Big
Brothers Big Sisters Partner Up With Girl Scouts
July
31, 2013
A
group of Bigs and Little’s recently partnered up with Girl Scouts of
America to
provide female Littles and Bigs in the Shelby County Big Brothers Big
Sisters
with the opportunity to participate in the Girl Scout program. There
were 30
participants in the program ranging in different ages.
The
Bigs and Littles met from 7:00P.M. to 8:00P.M. One Monday each month
for several
months. While at the meeting the Bigs and Littles would participate in
many
activities while following the Girl Scout honor.
The activities revolved around positive
choices, being a stand up character, and overall fun.
Jennifer
Bruns, Executive Director stated, “This was a wonderful opportunity for
the
Littles & Bigs in our program to get involved in such a
positive
organization such as Girl Scouts. They may not have had the opportunity
to do
so if it weren’t for this partnership. The activities the Girl Scouts
provide
were wonderful and everyone left after each meeting learning something
valuable
and positive. I look forward to future opportunities of working with
the Girl
Scouts again. “
Big
Brothers Big Sisters of Shelby & Darke County is a non-profit
United Way
agency. We are
always looking for
additional volunteers. If
you would like
more information on entering your child in the program or on becoming
an active
volunteer, please call 937-547-9622 or 937-492-7611.
