man of the Covington-Newton
County Girl Scouts at an impor=
tant meeting in the Girl Scout Hut
on Newton Drive, Tuesday morn=-
ing, May 14, at ten o’clock.
Miss Nancy Allen, Field Di
rector of the Northwest Georgia
Council serving this county, in
troduced Mrs. Barbara Partain,
a newcomer to the staff, who was
getting acquainted with local
leaders.
It was significant that eight
troops in this county sold a total
of 423 cases of Girl Scout cook=
ies, whose proceeds will be util=
ized in the development of the
new Camp Cherokee, an exciting
venture of the future.
Various troop leaders shared
thrilling adventure stories of re
cent camping experiences and
trips. There was a week-end
trip at Timberridge, trips to
Fernbank Science Center, the
Municipal Airport in Atlanta, the
Capitol, Grant Park, the Execu=-
tive Center, Six Flags Over Geor=-
gia, and the R, L. Mathis Dairy,
to name a few. One troop in
Covington will leave in early June
for a fascinating trip to Virginia
whose details will comprise a
separate story later.
Plans for Day Camp with Rock=
dale County were presented. June
17-21 are chosen dates at a
cost of SB.OO per camper. Each
will bring a sack lunch every
day. Local leaders will share
in activities and projects at the
camp to be on the site of Hum=
phries Farm, Conyers.
All leaders were reminded that
annual reports of activities and
finances should be reported to the
office by June 1, 1968,
It was with regret that the
leaders learned that Mrs. Ruth
Harris, troop leader and this
year’s cookie chairman, will be
moving to Hopewell, Virginia
during the summer. Mrs, Jane
McCoy was welcomed as a new
leader who has already made
preparations through an over=-
night troop camping trip to Scout
Haven in April.
