Please join the Amity Service Unit for Girl Scout Sunday!  Girl Scouts Sunday kicks off Girl Scout week, when we commemorate the Girl Scouts’ Birthday (when Juliette Gordon Low formed the first Girl Scout troop Savannah, Georgia).

Join us for an opportunity to be together with other Girl Scouts of all ages, learn about a faith and be recognized as Girl Scouts at a local church.

Christ Episcopal Church

Girls and their families are invited together to this event.   Girls should wear their uniforms. Everyone will be invited to the Parish House after the service for refreshments and participating Girl Scouts will receive a patch from the Service Unit.

Please RSVP to Allyson Rogers by March 1, (allyson8@gmx.com) so that she can make sure there is enough food!
