“I loved seeing how so many of our local troops responded to the challenges of COVID-19 and adapted to online meetings and activities. They have continued to make an impact throughout our communities through service and initiative.”
“Our troop allocates a portion of our cookie proceeds to our local food pantry. We shop together and deliver our donation to the food pantry, where we sort it and pack it into bags. It is great fun and a way to give back to our community—we miss it.”
