ToGetHerBoating - Mariner's Skills
Does everyone know what GAM is? Our council hosts one every May, to give Sr/A Girl Scouts the chance to get together and compete in a variety of ways...tying knots, singing songs, swimming, boating races, and more.
And to help girls get ready, we are offering a ToGetHer Boating Practice event on October 21, 2012 at the Newport Dunes. You can download the flyer from our website:

Anne Rizzacasa and I are co-chairing the day, with a great committee, and we are VERY excited about offering in-water boating skills for our girls:
Sabot
Rowboat
Kayak
Canoe
And also some land skills:
Knots
Bell Time
Compass and Relative Bearing
So, come one come all! If you have 8th grade and above girls, they are welcome to come learn some new skills and practice on the water. We'll have certified life guards and small craft instructors to teach and supervise. Even if you think you're not ready for GAM competition, come on down anyway, and have fun with us.
Registration is required, and yes, all participants get the patch! Would love to see you there!
