Troop from Girl Scouts of the Southern Appalachians is a perfect example of how big, meaningful impact often starts with just one idea and a whole lot of enthusiasm. First, the girls scheduled a meeting to visit the PLC in Knoxville, meet some of the patients mostly children between two and three years old with a diagnosis of or identified markers of autism , see other sensory tools the clinic uses, and sit down to talk with Libby about her specific needs.
Next the troop headed off to The Muse to observe The Zipper installation. The girls studied it to figure out how it was constructed, which materials they would need to replicate it, and how they could make both a smaller scale model for younger children and one that was more mobile so it could be built at home and later transported to the PLC.
Then the girls got to work. They researched, budgeted, sketched, and developed a timeline for their project. Later, with a firm game plan in hand, they headed to the hardware store with their hard-earned Girl Scout Cookie money to get started. All in all, the girls logged an impressive 56 hours of construction time—talk about dedication! And despite their busy summer schedules, every girl in the troop contributed to getting The Zipper installation built, delivered, and installed.
Teamwork always makes the dream work! Both the staff and the patients at the PLC were thrilled to see The Zipper and use it for the first time. The staff made sure to send the girls lots of pictures and videos of patients enjoying the creation and continue to do so. By completing this project, the girls were able to build awareness of and sensitivity to others with a range of disabilities, Libby explains. And the best part? Our general guideline is that if school is out, Scout meetings and activities should be canceled.

Being one of the longest continuous running Scout Groups in Australia, dating back to Scouting offers Australian youth a program that contributes to their personal growth, offers leadership development opportunities, develops resilience, and prepares them for the challenges and opportunities of a 21st century global community.
This Scouting experience occurs through the Youth Program It's a small little group with very knowledgeable leaders. Great way to get the kids out of the house and learn practical things. My son joined there as a cub and had the most amazing 2 years. He loved the mix of adventure, practical skill training and weekly meetings he attended.
Wonderful team of volunteers. My children have been with the group for over a year now and we have tried elsewhere before. This group has very active leaders who include meaningful topics for their activities.
The cub scout leaders are very creative in their approach, our kids love their challenges. Thanks ActiveActivities we found them through you. If you are around Panania suburb take your child to this scout group. My children simply love the interesting new activities and programs this bunch of leaders run. They also give first three nights free and it was the best decision I took. If your looking for something for the kids that teaches them skills and experiences for life, look no further than East Gosford Scouts.
Scouts engages and inspires young Australians to develop confidence, resilience and leadership. When can you start? This aim is achieved through a strong and active program that inspires young people to do their best and to always be prepared.
I'd like to recommend Green Valley Scouts - my boys simply love the team. They have learnt so much and had experiences that i could never provide them on my own. Family camp is still one of the greatest memories my kids and i share. Scouts is for Boys and Girls years Scouting offers Australian youth a program that contributes to their personal growth, offers leadership development opportunities, develops resilience, and prepares them for the challenges and opportunities of a 21st century global community.
