Girl Scouts from multiple troops converged for a weekend of camping madness. We trudged, climbed, crafted and even invaded a faire house! The girls cooked up their own meals and even baked brownies in a Dutch oven over coals like rockstars. They sparked their own fires and had a riot with sister Girl Scouts. We can't wait for the next camping extravaganza!

Happy Birthday Girl Scouts. Unlocking girls' potential to become bold leaders, championing inclusivity, and providing enriching experiences that equip them to drive positive change. Atchison girls commemorated the birthday by organizing a skating party that doubled as a charity fundraiser, demonstrating their commitment to creating a better world.

Celebrating the sun god's triumphant return, our girls gained a deeper understanding of the winter solstice and the symbolism of Yule logs. We searched for, decorated, and burned Yule logs, releasing the weight of past struggles to embrace a future filled with hope. The evening was a joyous celebration of Yule blessings, marked by the warmth of fire, chili, and s'mores.

What a howling good time! We flipped pancakes, played Juliette Gordon Low's favorite games and had a birthday cupcake bash! The girls embarked on a spooktacular scavenger hunt, fondling fake brains, eyeballs, witch tongues and monster teeth. After that they made witch’s potion with individual cauldrons! Then, they snapped retro pics with a disposable camera photo booth, experiencing life like it's the 1900’s as they like to say! We're dying to see the pics. They were totally perplexed why they couldn't instant-view them. Happy Halloween!🎃 👻

Empowered by the Courtney S Turner Grant, our Girl Scouts embarked on a transformative journey to Medicine Lodge, Kansas, where they immersed themselves in the rich heritage of the American West. They witnessed a poignant reenactment of the Medicine Lodge Peace Treaty between five Native American tribes and the US Government, discovered the resilience of prairie life, and connected with the community through a rodeo, museums, and a parade. The experience culminated in a profound intertribal POW Wow Ceremony, fostering unity and understanding under the breathtaking night sky.

Troop 2992's bridging ceremony was a resounding success, with girls boldly jumping for Juniors, cannonballing for Brownies, and diving for Daisies into the pool. This year, they've demonstrated remarkable dedication, donating 24 birthday cake boxes, sharing joy with candy and treats, camping, celebrating Juliette Gordon Low's legacy, and playing her beloved game, pancake flipping. They've also surpassed their cookie goals. We look forward to witnessing their continued growth. Thank you to Bellevue Country Club for hosting our uplifting party!
