Stitch, Create, and Give Back! Join us for a fun-filled Sewing Day Camp where Girl Scouts in grades 4-12 will learn valuable sewing skills while creating beautiful handmade projects! Learn to use a sewing machine to craft pillowcases, drawstring bags, and other spring-themed projects. Plus, gain handy hand-sewing skills for smaller tasks like sewing on buttons! As part of a service project, girls will donate one of their drawstring bags to a local organization — and are encouraged to bring items like books, crayons, or personal care items to fill them. Lunch provided with healthy sides! Date: June 9-13, 2025 OR July 14-18 Time: 10:30 AM - 3 PM Location: DreamLab, Gonzales, LA Fee: $75 per girl (includes supplies, patch, and lunch) We’re also seeking some awesome adults to help with the event — let us know if you can lend a hand!

Earn a fun patch just for reading and exploring new stories all summer long. 💚📖 Here’s how to earn your patch: 1. Read for at least 20 hours total between May 24th - August 3rd. 2. Read at least 2 books from the Reading List (see below - borrowed from Girl Scouts of the Southern Appalachians) during that timeframe (check out your local parish library for books or see about getting book loans from surrounding parishes). 3. Purchase your patch at the GSLE Shop. Please call the Shop at 504-733-8220, option 3 to let them know when you are coming by. If you want the patch mailed to you, contact the Shop for details about shipping costs. 4. Registration is free. Send us your information so we know how many girls are participating. Explore new worlds, grow your imagination, and celebrate your love for reading—Girl Scout style! 🌟 Download a copy of the Reading List at www.girlscoutcsa.org/ssc.
