In preparation for the coming centennial, activities and events are being planned both locally and nationally in honor of the Girl Scouts’ 99th anniversary on March 12. The Girl Scouts of North-Central Alabama (GSNCA) will join a nationwide take-action project entitled “Girl Scouts Forever Green” which allows Girl Scouts of all ages, volunteers and alumnae to participate in a meaningful leadership experience that makes a positive impact on the environment. GSNCA will participate in Earth Hour, a global initiative that invites individuals, businesses, governments and communities to turn off their lights for one hour, to show support for environmentally sustainable action. Earth Hour will take place at 8:30 p.m. on Saturday, March 26.
“In recognition of our 100th anniversary in 2012, we plan to challenge our entire 36-county area to join us in celebrating Earth Hour,” said GSNCA CEO Trish Coghlan. “The Earth Hour collaboration is one part of the Girl Scouts’ broader commitment to environmental sustainability.”
