Parents and guardians of any young girl, 5-18 years of age, interested in joining Girl Scouts are encouraged to attend Fountain Hills Girl Scout’s annual Round-Up information night being held Wednesday, Aug. 23, at 7 p.m. at the Sunset Kiwanis building located at 16957 Kiwanis Dr.

Registration procedure, troop availability, troop activities and membership dues will be discussed at this meeting.

Organizers describe Girl Scouts as a safe place where girls can try new things, take on challenges, help build strong communities and inspire others. A girl can transform her ideas into action, turn her questions into adventure and grow her confidence through practice.

“The possibilities are endless,” said Girl Scouts’ Nita Blose. “Girls will find they are capable of more than they ever imagined and there is no one way to participate.”

Blose invites local ladies to take the first step and join 3.2 million other Girl Scouts nationwide. Those interested in joining Girl Scouts who cannot attend the Round-Up meeting can contact Blose at 480-296-3101 or by sending an email to nblose@arotechinc.com.
