Purpose Statement:

The purpose of Coyote Hills Service Unit is to provide a caring, learning environment based upon the Girl Scout program, where girls in Newark and Fremont can grow with diversity, develop values and leadership skills, and gain new relationships and experiences, based upon the girls’ own needs and interests.

July 2008: Troop finance reports are DUE ASAP! Two copies of the troop finance report along with a copy of the May bank statement were due to our Treasurer, Mary, by June 30.  Registration for a troop for the 2008-2009 year will not be processed until the finance report is submitted. Previous information updates including details about registration codes and upcoming changes to the Girl Scout program can be found by clicking here.

TreasureIsland2008 Camporee (July 13 - 20th): Camping on an island in the middle of San Francisco Bay, with the San Francisco city lights as the back drop! Excerpted from an email from Marina H. Park, CEO of Girl Scouts of Northern California: Two volunteers with a vision coordinated an international camporee on Treasure Island for 350 girls, patrol leaders and volunteers from 17 states, England, Wales, New Zealand, Hong Kong and Belarus. Meredith Davis and Denise Kruskamp ... were inspired to create the experience for a new generation of senior girls. The camporee ran from and campers had the opportunity to participate in activities such as Bay restoration projects, field trips to the Santa Cruz Board walk, sailing trips on tall ships, and much more! The girls heard from an astronaut who described her journeys on the space shuttle and space walk and answered lots of questions, and then they posed for a group photo - with 17 flags flying in the San Francisco Bay breeze and the City in the background.
