The joint committee of Girl
Guides in Denmark had invited
the Girl Scouts of America to
participate in the “Aussivik
Jamboretten” in celebration of
the 250th Anniversary of the
landing of the first Missionary,
Hans Egede in Greenland.
Dates of the event are ten
tatively from July 24 through
August 10 on the west coast
of Holsteenborg with time spent
before and after in New York
for training and evaluation. Ac
tivities wilt include camping,
a boat trip to the Bay of Disko
to see the biggest glacier in the
world, a hike to the inland ice
by Sde. Stromfjord, or a stay in
Holsteinborg.
In conclusion I must say I am
very happy to be a Girl Scout
and I hope in some way I have
inspired other girls to enjoy
Scouting as I have and still do.”
