Celebrating 100 years
of Girl Scouting
"Teacups to Tenderfoot"
A new Victorian Pastimes program beginning November 2011
On March 9, 1912, before they had their first
official meeting, Daisy Gordon Low held a Tea at
her home for girls to explain her wonderful idea, and
started an adventure that would teach girls
to be prepared, to be useful, and to be as remarkable
as she knew they could be!
Join our celebration at the Brown House Inn.
First dress up in Victorian costumes,
and
then see a slide show featuring the story of Daisy Low.
Then you'll play games from the first Girl Scout meetings and learn some of the skills Girl Scouts needed to pass the test and earn the rank of Tenderfoot Scout.
And of course, have a Tea party to celebrate
your great adventure!
Many thanks to Cadette Girl Scouts, Emily Skowfoe and Olivia Smith who so graciously agreed to be our models for this photograph!
For more information and details please contact the Inn.
