It was a day of Girl Scout and Cub Scout activities. I took Laura to Valhalla’s Gate to complete a service project for the University of Missouri Kappa Delta (KD) Sorority. The women of KD do so much for the Girl Scouts that Laura’s Service Unit wanted to do something in return for them. A group of about 70 Girl Scouts made goodie bags for the KDs for their upcoming Finals week. Laura’s troop rotated through three stations and then helped to put together each of the bags. It was a fun service project and Laura was very glad to participate.
Just as Laura and I finished up her service project, Andy and John met his Cub Scout Den at the Columbia Fire Department’s Fire Station #6 for a visit. Big thanks to Keith Dothage for making the visit possible. The boys had a great time and paid close attention. They got to see the inside of a fire truck, watch Firefighter Sam climb the ladder, and learn all about the gear that firefighters wear. John loved his visit and was very excited to tell me all about it.
It was a busy, yet fun day, of scouting. I love that the kids get to have all these different experiences!
