Smithfield Christmas Parade

Come one troop, come all troops and show Smithfield what Girl Scouts are all about! :) 

Service Unit 626 will be leading the parade this year by holding the parade's banner! Since the year's theme is "Genuine Hamtown Holidays", we thought we could have pig ears, pig tails and our uniforms. 

Parade starts at 10, but there will be an earlier start time to gather the girls in preparation. More details to follow!

Trip/Camp Activity Requests

ALL trips now require a form – 

It can be found on our website gsccc.org – Trip/Camp Activity Request form
