Thank You!

Your volunteer efforts are truly appreciated! With your help, the girls in your troop will have the opportunity to participate in quality council-sponsored programs, develop life skills and help raise funds for your troop. Not only do girls benefit, but this Fall Product Program also allows GSHNC to provide equipment for facilities, startup

funds for new and existing troops, and provides enriching Girl Scout programs for the girls in your community. The Fall Product Program is conducted among friends and family only. No booth sales are permitted.

Participation in the Fall Product Program is required for additional troop money earning activities, except for older girl awards and international travel money earning.
