Call for Girl Scout memorabilia and collectables

Girl Scouts of Northeastern New York is inviting the community to share Girl Scout insignias, ephemera, or items of interest from the Girl Scout movement with alumnae, friends, family, and fans of Girl Scouting at ToGetHerThere, an exhibition of items from the council archives and the general public that spans the 100-year history of the organization.

The exhibit will take place on Saturday, March 9, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at The Desmond Hotel and Conference Center in Albany and is free and open to the public.

Donors are asked to include name and phone number or e-mail address with the materials along with any added details about them that may be of interest.

If preferred, arrangements may be made for item sharing by contacting Maegan Frantz, Girl Scout Alumnae Relations Coordinator, at 348-1413, ext. 402 or by e-mail at This email address is being protected from spambots.
