Junior Troop 5130: Bronze Project



This year, the Juniors from GS Troop 5130 completed their Bronze Award project: a year-long educational initiative to engage other Girl Scouts in ways to support the homeless.  The girls held two planning retreats and a series of events, both in-person and virtually (due to Covid-19).

Project stats: 
  • 150 Lunches Made for Connect-by-Night (link to orgs like CBN)
  • Multiple cases of GS cookies donated to CBN
  • Approx 50 Toiletry Treat Bags donated to CBN
  • MANY rolls of plarn for Angels in Motion
  • Engagement of the Entire Service Unit 
  • Development of multiple PR devices
  • Education of Younger GS via Virtual Events
Troops in Eastern PA might be interested in supporting organizations in this area:
  • Original brochure distributed to service unit troop leaders and parents who brought donations for us to use for Connect-By-Night.
  • Additional resources in Delaware County.

Junior Journey in a Day: Agent of Change

As many troops are moving to online meetings, it may be fun to attempt a journey.  Last fall, I hosted a Journey in a Day for Juniors to complete the Agent of Change journey in one day-long retreat.  The event was held in a library so we were able to research female change agents in the children's biography section... but girls could research via the internet (maybe watch YouTube videos) in place of that... Leaders, take a look at my plan and feel free to make it your own!

Case of the Cracked Sidewalk - Brownie Quest - by Sylvia

This video, created by Cadette Sylvia Langston, tells the story of the Case of the Cracked Sidewalk (aka The Case of the Broken Sidewalk) from the Brownie Quest journey. Through storytelling, Brownies can learn about how kids their age reacted when they discovered a problem in their community.  Brownie leaders, you can use this video to empower your troop for helping them understand ways they can take action in their community. Thanks to Sylvia for creating this fun video!!
