OLA Juniors Help with Breast Cancer 3 Day - see the slide show!
The 5th grade Girl Scouts from Our Lady of the Assumption (OLA) Parish performed community service at the Breast Cancer 3 Day Event by participating in the Camp Angels Program. This volunteer program gave the girls an opportunity to perform vigorous, but satisfying physical labor in support of the 3-Day walkers. Fourteen OLA Juniors worked hard helping to set-up 1500 bright pink tents, and cheering on the exhausted walkers as they finished day one of the 60 mile journey. Troop Leader Karen Mujica said "This experience was very empowering for the girls, because they witnessed first hand thousands of women working together for a common goal. It is a fine way to teach these young girls that we as women are not powerless...that we can work together and fight for a cure." For more information and to find out about additional volunteer opportunities, please visit the Breast Cancer 3 Day website: http://www.the3day.org/

The Council Guide for Volunteers and our Troop Trip Information page can also help you determine what kind of forms you need to have for a trip.
