Greystone Power will visit our troop on Monday, November 12^th to conduct a Go Green Power presentation.  Go Green Power helps students understand the importance of renewable energy as part of a utility’s generation mix and show students how they can conserve energy in their homes.  Please remember to wear your uniform.  Please know Greystone Power may take pictures during the presentation and it’s possible that a picture from that day could be used in one of Greystone Power’s newsletters, or possibly in a press release or on their Facebook page.  Girls must have a Photo Release Form on file in order to have their picture taken. 

Please contact the troop if you do not want your daughter’s picture taken at this event.  troop12377@gmail.com   Girls will earn a Forever Green fun patch! 

Please return the Forever Green Pledge form to your troop leader by November 12^th.  Girls should complete as many tasks as possible.  Each girl will earn the Forever Green fun patch.
