Here’s a note from Kate Crowley, Chair Elect:

Dear Girls CAN! member:

I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself.  Presently I serve as Board Secretary for the Girl Scouts in the Heart of Pennsylvania, a position I have held since the council was created in May 2007.  Prior to that, I served on the board of one of the legacy councils.  I am truly honored to now be nominated to be the next GSHPA board chair.  There is no doubt that we still have challenges ahead but with your help and ongoing passion for our organization and indeed, for all the girls we serve, we can meet those challenges head on.

The membership will consider the entire slate of nominations at the upcoming GSHPA Annual Meeting on Saturday, May 2, 2009.  The event will be held at the Bloomsburg Fairgrounds from 10:30 am until 3:00 pm.  In addition to our business meeting, we are planning a reunion picnic lunch, a special adult volunteer recognition program, a bridging ceremony for graduating senior Girl Scouts, and of course lots of fun with friends and other loyal Girl Scout supporters like yourself.    

So, won’t you consider joining us on May 2nd.  Everyone on the board would be delighted to have you attend.  A link to the registration form can be found at http://www.gshpa.org/home/delegate_info.html.

If you are unable to attend, we will certainly miss you but we promise to keep you apprised of all the exciting things going on with Girl Scouts in the Heart of Pennsylvania!

Sincerely,
Kate Crowley
Chair-Elect
