For Families and Girls
River Valleys is calling all Girl Scout Investigators (GSI) to participate in the 2009 Fall Product Program. Get your troop activities off the ground early with the new Fall Product Program. Troops can earn proceeds for each item sold, plus you can earn fun awards as you “Unlock the Mystery” with Snoops the bloodhound. Proceeds can be used to help fund a variety of troop and council-sponsored events. “Be a Reader, Unlock the Mystery!” fun and enriching leadership activities include great ideas for any time during the year. Here’s your chance to investigate.

Girls earn the “Be a Reader” patch the first year they complete the “Be a Reader” activity booklet activities for their grade level. An additional bee patch is earned for each year of completion after the initial year. These patches are available for purchase at River Valleys Girl Scout Shop. The "Be a Reader" activity booklets can be found in English and in Spanish, beware that the files are large and may take several minites to load.
