Girl Scouts Heart of the Hudson
July 12, 2024 A weekly newsletter for Girl Scouts Heart of the Hudson, Inc. members.
Week 2 of summer camp at Rock Hill and Camp Addisone Boyce is almost in the books! This week, campers have been swimming, doing archery, ropes, and units/groups at each camp had the opportunity to go on field trips to other GSHH camps. CAB campers went to Rock Hill to do high ropes and Rock Hill campers took a trip to Camp Wendy to sleep under the stars! Photos will be posted periodically on the Rock Hill and CAB Facebook pages for you all to see what campers are getting up to.
Your Efforts at Work - New Picnic Tables at Camp Addisone Boyce
We are continuing to highlight the great work of our members and donors who contributed to the Girl Scouts Love CAMPaign.

For this summer, we have replaced all of the well-loved and well-used wooden picnic tables at Camp Addisone Boyce. The new tables are lightweight, portable, easy to clean, and made to withstand the elements. We are so happy that we were able to refresh the picnic area by the waterfront where campers can eat lunch, participate in activities, and relax with their units.

Thank you again for the hard work and generosity of everyone who worked on and contributed to the Girl Scouts Love CAMPaign to make this possible!

Stay tuned for more updates throughout the summer!
