SIDNEY Despite the pandemic disrupting day-to-day life, the Girl Scouts of Western Ohio are persistent in making sure the cookie program continues this year.
“The pandemic has forced Girl Scouts to get creative, and to find new ways of accomplishing their meetings, and their badge and journey work, and they’ve been able to do that in a number of different ways,” KayAnn Rutter, director of Marketing and Communications for the Girl Scouts of Western Ohio said.
Getting creative includes doing virtual programming through Facebook Live, utilizing YouTube as a programming tool, gaining access to Zoom accounts for troops so that meetings can be held virtually and following safety guidelines in order to meet in-person.
