Cookie were sold


Dallesport Daisy Troop sold lots of cookes on Saturday April 11. The town-wide clean up brought people to town, and the girls set up shop right next door to the drop off site. They sold a lot of cookies. The girls will next volunteer to clean up the Klickitat-Balfour State Park at the end of April, enjoy a day-trip to Horsethief Buttte in May, take a fun trip to Oaks Park in June and maybe even visit the Oregon Zoo this summer.

Daisy Girl Scouts Clean Up Park Place







Dallesport Girl Scout Troop #3425 enthusiastically cleaned up Lyle Park Place during their March spring break. The girls picked up the litter in an effort to “make the world a better place.” Four bags of garbage were removed.

The kindergarten girls, all new to Girl Scouts, have been busy since September with various activities. This was their first community service project.

Olivia said, “I had a lot of fun today. The garbage on the ground made me feel bad, and I am happy that we picked it up.”

Emma reflected, “the garbage made us sad and not glad.”

The Troop is also selling Girl Scout cookies to fund future projects, including a field trip to Oaks Park in Portland and the Oregon Zoo. They look forward to future community service projects. If you are interested in buying cookies to support Troop efforts, please contact Troop Leader Lisa at 509-365-6828. If you want to buy cookies but don't want to eat them, you can purchase cookies and the girls will donate them to an organization or individual of your choice. Cookies are $4.00 a box.
