After a hiatus, Girl Scouts Coast to Coast is back and
today’s edition celebrates spectacular Girl Scouts stories from all over. Let’s
get started!

The
Southern Illinoisan reports that Girl Scouts of Southern Illinois will host
Big Kids Day at Camp on Aug. 10 to celebrate the 60th Anniversary of Camp Cedar
Point, near Makanda. In 2012, GSSI provided more than $10,000 in camperships to
ensure that every Girl Scout had the opportunity to experience resident camp.
Ohio’s Aiken
Standard reports that three local Girl Scouts have been selected to
participate in what the Girl Scout organization refers to as “destinations” –
domestic and international travel experiences that can last anywhere from two
days to three weeks. One Girl Scout is headed to Hollywood, one is set to ravel
to India and another will be ringing in the New Year in London and Paris. Exciting!
Tennessee’s WBIR
TV 10 has a call out seeking Girl Scout volunteers.
In New Mexico, the Las
Cruces Sun-News reports that The Girl Scouts of the Desert Southwest are
hosting a luncheon Sept. 19 and they need the area's best women to be there.
"Women of Distinction luncheon is a function that
many, many Girl Scouts councils do across the country," said Diane
Flanagan, CEO of the GSDSW. "Our council is so big that we really wanted
to do a second one."
The Girl Scouts of the Desert Southwest council covers
94,000 square miles and includes 10,000 girls and 2,000 volunteer adults.
