Celebrate Girl Scout's founder Juliette Gordon Low's birthday at Juliette Low Fall Fest on Sunday, October 28th at Camp Cedar Hill in Waltham from 1 to 4 p.m.

We have decided not to attend as a troop, but individual Brownies are welcome to register for this Eastern Massachusetts council (Patriot's Trail) event. Girl Scouts from all over Eastern Massachusetts are registering.

Troop leader Susan Petroni may attend with her daughter Bella. If you would like to car pool or have questions about the online registration please don't hesitate to e-mail her at spetroni@rcn.com

The cost to attend is $7 per Brownie.
Parents & siblings may attend this council-wide event for free. To register, visit http://www.ptgirlscouts.org/events_programs/juliette_low_fall_fest.html
It is recommended you register no later than Sunday, Oct. 21. Council events typically fill up quickly. Not sure if there is a # cutoff for this event.

Registered Girl Scouts and their families are invited to join the celebration by participating in fun activities such as decorating a mini birthday cake, playing games, singing around a campfire, and much more!

Juliette Gordon Low founded the first Girl Scout troop in 1912 with only 18 scouts.
Today, there are over 3.7 million registered Girl Scouts! In developing the Girl Scout movement, Juliette brought girls of all backgrounds together to develop girls of courage, confidence and character. Juliette encouraged girls to prepare for future roles as professional women in the arts, sciences and business.


This event is sponsored by the former Patriots Trail Girl Scout Council of Eastern Massachusetts. Girl Scouts, Patriots' Trail Council is one of the largest organizations in Eastern Massachusetts dedicated to girls and is a leader in innovative girl programming and collaboration. Patriots' Trail Council and nearly 10,500 dedicated volunteers serve 23,000 girls, ages 5-18, from 65 communities in and surrounding Boston. It offer more than 100 programs and opportunities that engage and challenge girls of every age and collaborate with more than 100 organizations from all over the region. At some point this year, the Patriots Trail Council and two other Eastern Massachusetts Girl Scout Councils will merge to form the Eastern Massachusetts Council.
