Scouts celebrate girl power
June 10, 2009 THE VILLADOM TIMES III • Page 19
Girl power was the positive message within the ‘Uniquely Me – The Way to Be’ Girl Scout Program hosted by Elena Lavalas of the Paramus Council, Girl Scouts of Northern New Jersey at the Worth Pinkham Memorial Library in Ho-Ho-Kus. This self esteem program encourages girls to feel good about who they are from the inside out. Twenty girls from Ho-Ho-Kus entering grades 3-6 worked together and independently discovering a bit more themselves, their positive attributes and uniqueness. They participated in various discussions about being unique and a one-of-a-kind individual and then created a collage about themselves focusing on a strong and healthy self image built on three main foundations of Girl Scouting: courage, confidence, and character.
