Needs From: Volunteer United

Girl Scouts of Southern Appalachians is excited to participate in the Northeast Tennessee Day of Play, a free, family-centered community event taking place on April 18 from 10:00 AM–1:00 PM at Unicoi High School.

Day of Play is designed to encourage families to get active, connect with local organizations, and discover opportunities available to children throughout our region. Girl Scouts of Southern Appalachians will be on-site to welcome families, share information about how girls in grades K–12 can get involved in Girl Scouting, and answer questions about local troops and upcoming programs.

Families who stop by our booth will:

Receive take-home informational materials about joining Girl ScoutsLearn about leadership development, outdoor adventures, STEM activities, entrepreneurship, and community service opportunitiesChildren can also participate in a fun, hands-on activity at our booth — choosing between Sling Shots or T-Ball — giving them a chance to play while families learn more about the Girl Scout experience.

We look forward to connecting with families across Northeast Tennessee and sharing how Girl Scouts builds girls of courage, confidence, and character who make the world a better place.
