Illinois Trekkers Wants to Hear from GSSI Volunteers

Illinois Trekkers is a club promoting personal fitness through walking, biking, and occasional swim events.  For several years, Illinois Trekkers has hosted a Walk Together event for Girl scouts, including the upcoming event at National Shrine of Our Lady of the Snows on November 15. 

Susan Bacon with Illinois Trekkers is interested in starting a discussion group with Girl Scout leaders on creating additional Walk Together opportunities. Please send her areas that you'd like to see possibly host this event and any ideas you have for what girls would enjoy by Sept. 23. 

Susan's contact info is: baconse@gmail.com or 571.345.8301 

Way of Lights Walk Together Full & Closed. No Walk-In Registrants, Please

 

 

We have received the following important message regarding the Illinois Trekkers Girl Scout Walk Together at Our Lady of the Snows Shrine on Nov. 17.

 

 

Way of Lights Walk Together November 17, 2015

Due to the overwhelming response this year for our Girl Scout Walk Together, Illinois Trekkers will NOT be accepting walk-ins on event day. Only those who have pre-registered will be able to walk through the lights. We have over 600 Girl Scouts and families registered at this time. Our start point is too small to accommodate any more participants. We want everyone to enjoy their experience with us and are working to alleviate the situation so we may have unlimited walkers in the future. Please keep us in mind in 2016!

Thank you,

Deb Kruep AVA Youth Chair
