This Friday, January 3, 2014, will be our Troop’s Investiture and Rededication ceremony.

Investiture welcomes new members, girls or adults, into the Girl Scout family for the first time. Girls receive their Girl Scout, Girl Scout Brownie, or Girl Scout Daisy pin at this time. The Rededication is an opportunity for girls and adults to renew their commitment to the Girl Scout Promise and Law, including girl scouts who have recently transferred to Troop 3480 from other troops.

Each level’s program will take place in their individual room. Times of each levels ceremony will be posted at sign-in. We are asking parents to bring a dish for this special occasion.

Girls should be on time and in full uniform. Remember: the Uniform Stars program is an on-going effort.
