Susan Gurwitch, COO
Over the last six weeks, I have had a lot of opportunities to meet our fantastic volunteers. I attended 3 delegate meetings, 1 Service Unit Meeting, GSSI’s Annual Meeting, 4 Brownie and Daisy troop meetings, cookie delivery and booths, 8 Girl Scout Programs (Service Unit and Council), and All That Glitters. WOW! Do our volunteers work hard!! Every time, I am amazed by all that our volunteers do for the girls, the Service Units, and the Council. From running complete programs to providing our girls a quality Girl Scout Leadership Experience to running cookie booths, GSSI volunteers have got to be the most wonderful people around.
I want to give a shout out to all of our volunteers who helped our girls earn their Girl Scout Silver and Girl Scout Gold Awards. This includes the mentors, the committee members, and the community volunteers. Your support in aiding these 75 girls in earning their awards at All That Glitters is tremendous. What an impact you make ToGetHerThere! As the girls stepped into the spotlight to receive their awards, I was as proud as any of the parents present!
So I want to thank each and every one of you for all you do. It is apparent that this organization would be nothing without you, and I hope I can serve each one of you as well as you serve our girls. As we look for ways to make volunteering with GSSI easier for you, please share with me any ideas you might have as well. I look forward to continuing to meet more of you over the next few months.
