Volunteer Connections by Girl Scouts of Nassau County

Did you know... August 10th is National S’mores Day. The first recorded version of the S’more recipe can be found in the 1927 edition of the Girl Scout handbook "Tramping and Trailing with the Girl Scouts". Wondering how to make a Traditional S’more? Sandwich a roasted marshmallow and a piece of chocolate between two graham crackers. For fun S’more recipes, follow the Girl Scouts of Nassau County ’s S’mores board on Pinterest .

It’s hard to believe, but Thursday starts August! Being Girl Scouts, who are always prepared, prepare yourself for the upcoming month with… Girl Scouting in August.    August 4 th celebrate National Sisters' Day by sending out cards to your closest friends and Girl Scout sisters. Consider having your Cadettes, Seniors or Ambassadors form friendships with younger Girl Scouts by having them teach the art of friendship bracelet making. In the end, the girls can trade their friendship bracelets as a way to show their bonds!   Additionally, encourage your girls to make new friends this year, which will earn them their “Make New Friends” fun patch. Remember, just as Vi, the Daisy flower friend teaches us, be a sister to every Girl Scout.  Talk to your Cadettes about exploring the world of financial literacy and math skills involved in the home décor and fashion industries at our program Designer Division, Stylish Subtraction, and Fashionable Fractions . From August...
