Adult volunteers needed in Morgan County

As a way of saying thank you to United Way of Morgan County for their support of Girl Scouts of Colorado and other local nonprofits, Girl Scouts of Colorado is seeking adult volunteers to help with United Way of Morgan County’s “United We Race” event!

When: Saturday, September 7, 2019

Where:

Riverside Park – Nature Trails

1600 Main St

Fort Morgan 80701

Registration: 9 a.m.

Event/Competition: 10 a.m. – 1 p.m.

This event is similar in fashion to the famous television show, “The Amazing Race,” where up to 50 teams will start the event. Teams will go to many physical, mental, and unique competition points throughout the event where they will be eliminated. The United Way needs volunteers to help run these competition points.

To sign up to volunteer, please contact Chaundra with the United Way at (970) 867 – 2218 or mcunitedway@kci.net.

If you know older Girl Scouts interested in volunteering, please contact GSCO Donor Relations Manager Carol Griffin at carol.griffin@gscolorado.org.

20160221_121232

Troop 83334, combined Cadettes, Seniors and Ambassadors from Fort Morgan,  had the dads helping with cookie booths Sunday afternoon. We’re very fortunate and usually have at least one dad at each booth but even we don’t often get all the adult booth helpers be dads that often.

The front row of girls are Tamberly (Cadette) Marissa (Senior) and Jamie (Senior) the back row is Mark, Akela (Ambassador) Mario and Mark.  Yes, our dads were Mark, Mark and Mario. Having them there made for interesting conversations!
