If you were on the University of
Texas campus on Sunday, September 22nd, you may have seen a blur of green
walking through campus. The group of
green was Girl Scout Troop 329 enjoying the first day of fall and Austin Museum
Day.
The troop was able to make use of
Austin’s annual Museum Day to enjoy 2 museums for free. They visited the LBJ Museum and Library, as
well as the Texas Memorial Museum. While
on campus they also hiked through to see the UT Fountain and the UT Tower. What do all these things have in common? They are all on the list of popular Austin
locations to visit in order to earn the “Explore Austin” patch from the Girl
Scouts of Central Texas store.
So, in just one day, the girls
visited half the number of places they need to receive the badge. This Crystal Falls Service Unit troop loves
field trips—over half of the girls in it have earned the patch already. Troop leaders Jill Nalley and Robin Albert,
and a few awesome volunteer parents love fun local trips as much as the girls,
so watch out for those green shirts around Austin!
-Jill Nalley, Troop #329
One of the best things about Girl Scouts is exploring new and
exciting places with your troop and making lifelong friendships!
You can be a part of Girl Scouts, too. Join or volunteer and help your girls start building memories that
will last them a lifetime.
