Anyone looking to purchase Girl Scout cookies can contact Kristine M. Maloney-Walters via Facebook Messenger or stop by this location Saturday, March 13, between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.

The Girl Scouts of the Cove meet every Monday from 5:50 to 6:30 p.m. at the Roaring Spring Library. All girls from Kindergarten to grade 12 are welcome.

Also, the Girl Scouts of Western Pennsylvania have opened registration for in-person summer camp sessions. The scouts are also launching virtual camp program options on March 15.

The mission of the Girl Scouts is to build girls of courage, confidence, and character who can make the world a better place. Time in the outdoors has always been a cornerstone of the Girl Scout programming. When asked, 68 percent of Girl Scouts say that doing an outdoor activity in Girl Scouts has helped them overcome at least one fear.
