Iola Girl Scouts Win First Place in Parade

Northern Star (Iola) Girls Scouts manned, well "girled", their float for Iola's 38th Annual Farm City Days Parade. Their float featured a pup tent and a "fire" to roast their marshmallows on. The banner on the side of their float said "Girl Scouts: Where Girls Grow Strong." There were Daisy's all the way to Ambassadors participating in the parade with the little ones riding and the others walking the 10 long blocks for the parade, singing all the way. The girls won first place in the youth division for their float.

Iola's All-Night Cookie Kickoff

cookie_kick_off_09_086 How about an all-nighter with 57 girls? That's what was on the agenda for Iola's 2009 Cookie Kickoff. Not only were there girls, but parents and a few tagalongs. There were 15 girls and six very brave adults (probably caffeinated and sugared) who stayed up all night long!

The activities included karaoke, dancing, singing, cookie training, skits about what you may encounter selling cookies, free play, arts and crafts, a dance contest, booths and snacks, snacks, and more snacks. Sounds like this group had a ton of
fun. Thank you to everyone involved in making this year's cookie kickoff a success!
