Welcome to the
              2021-2022 Girl Scout Year!
    Dear Friends of Girl Scouting,

    Welcome to the 2021-2022 Girl Scout Year! We are excited to share this
    year’s edition of Girl Scouts Heart of the Hudson’s Girl Experience Pro-
    gram Guide, your handy resource for everything GSHH has planned this
    year for your girls!

    This year, we are thrilled to present an increased number of in-person
    programming. We are also continuing to offer virtual program options to
    make it easier for girls and their families to develop their ideal Girl Scout
    Experience.

    Girl Scouts Heart of the Hudson remains committed to keeping all of our
    girls, volunteers, and their families safe and healthy while providing qual-
    ity programming that helps to develop girls’ leadership skills and sup-
    ports the four main pillars of Girl Scouts:

         s Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM)
         s Outdoors
         s Life Skills
         s Entrepreneurship

    I am so happy to see the enthusiasm throughout the council for the up-
    coming year. We look forward to providing our girls the experiences which
    will prepare them for a lifetime of leadership, success and adventure!

    We will be adding more programs throughout the year; check girlscout-
    shh.org/calendar for updates!

The Girl Experience at Girl
     Scouts Heart of the Hudson
GSHH takes the guesswork out of planning activities!
Girls can sign up for programs with their troop, as an individual who is part
of a troop but wants to explore her own interests, or as an independently
registered Girl Scout (Juliette).

The Girl Experience Program Guide contains:
     s A list of the scheduled programs by date with age level indicators.
     s Description of programs with locations, registration fees, and anything else
     your girls will need for her program.
     s A listing of webinars and resources for girls working toward their Highest
     Awards (Gold and Silver)
s Programs are subject to change in the event of a change to COVID-19
guidelines or other restrictions.

Juliette’s Victory Garden

The Museum and Archives Committee is continuing the Victory Garden at
Camp Wendy for another year. Girls will learn how to prepare a garden for the
growing season, plant the garden, maintain the garden organically, harvest
the vegetables for donation to the Loaves and Fishes Food Pantry in Wallkill
and then clean up the garden for the winter.

The program will cover the material required for most of the gardening badg-
es. Individuals or troops can sign up for the whole program which will mean
2 days in the spring, helping maintain and harvest the garden in the summer
(we ask for a commitment of 3-4 days at some time during the summer) and
one day in the fall to prepare the garden for the winter. By committing to this
project, the girls will learn a lot, help food insecure families, and earn the
current garden badge as well as a vintage garden badge. Girls and troops can
also sign up for individual or multiple days in the summer to help us out and
gain community service hours. For more information contact Judi Silverman
at judithsilverman9@gmail.com
