Neighborhood Chair - Judy Ames
Riverside Neighborhood's regularly scheduled leader's meetings are held on the 1st Wednesday of each month, September - June. The meeting is held at St. Mary's Catholic Church in Clayton starting at 7:00pm.
Working together, the volunteers in Riverside Neighborhood provide innovative program opportunities through troop and Neighborhood activities. Examples of activities include:
- Food drive
- Sleep over
- In-Gathering
There are many active, exciting Girl Scout troops in the Riverside Neighborhood. However, troops fill fast leaving some girls who want to be Girl Scouts on a waiting list. We are looking for committed, caring adults who can give of their time. 1 hour, 1 month, weekly meetings, biweekly meetings, 1 meeting per month. Whatever fits into your busy schedule fits Girl Scouting. Be a leader/co-leader/assistant leader, share a craft, share a skill/hobby, or share your administrative or organizational skills. If you can make the commitment to mentor girls to grow to be strong, resourceful citizens, then we would like you to be a Girl Scout volunteer.
Check out these girls in action!
