Girl Scout Troop 745 was fortunate to celebrate Girl
Scouts 104th birthday on March 12, in a unique way. Laurel Parker,
children’s librarian at the Windham Public Library, was the gracious host to
four of the troop’s eight girls (Iyana, Ellie, Chloe, Leandra) and their
leaders (Brenda and Kristen) for a sleepover at the library.
The girls participated in some cool activities. One of
the highlights of the evening was a flashlight tour of the library, exploring
spots you don’t typically get to see, such as the book drop.
A surprise was encountered at the book drop, something Mrs.
Parker said in all the sleepovers she’s hosted at the library she’s never had
happen – someone was dropping off their books as the girls were peering into
the drop box. Imagine the gentleman’s surprise on the other side of the flap!
The girls enjoyed a pizza dinner. What better for dessert than Girl Scout
cookies?! The troop did a cheers to many
more years of Girl Scouting with Thanks A Lot cookies. The girls enjoyed crafts
and games. Another highlight of the event was bedtime stories read by Mrs.
Parker. She asked the leaders if they had a favorite story from their childhood
and Kristen shared a fun story involving the book “Harry The Dirty Dog.”
Troop 745 enjoyed their adventure at the library with
Mrs. Parker and appreciated the opportunity!
