CRC to Meet Saturday, January 12

The next meeting of the Council Realignment Committee (CRC) is scheduled for Saturday, January 12, 2008. There will several items on the agenda on which the group will take action. Check out this blog shortly after January 12 to catch up on all the latest from the meeting!

Our New Council Has A Name!

We are delighted to announce that our new council now has a name. After reviewing over 250 submissions from girls and adults from throughout Oregon, three finalists were submitted to Girl Scouts of the USA for final approval. We have now been notified that, upon the realignment of Girl Scouts of Santiam Council, Girl Scouts - Columbia River Council, Girl Scouts of Western Rivers Council and Girl Scouts of Winema Council, we will all move forward as "Girl Scouts of Oregon and Southwest Washington," serving approximately 20,000 girls throughout most of Oregon and Clark and Skamania counties in Washington.

Thank you to all who submitted names for our new council. Several individuals suggested "Girl Scouts of Oregon and Southwest Washington" and we'll recognize them in an upcoming blog posting.
