Memories of

 OUR

 Girl Scout 
  Troop 456

Wasilla Alaska

We dedicate this page to all the Girl Scouts in the World 

Who We Are and What We Do 1994-2001
Some of us are NOW Cadet's and we live in Wasilla Alaska. Our troop had creative and talented girls. We all enjoyed the time that we spent together since kindergarten. The camping trips and projects that we all did together. God Bless each one of you wonderful girls in your what ever you choose to pursue.  As you continue to grow and learn you will accomplish many things.

(3 have been with us since Daisies, the rest joined later) and we love doing badge work, community projects, singing songs, playing games, camping, and craft projects.
 

Our troop crest, the Purple Pansy, known as "Hearts-Ease", stands for service and friendship.
Learn more about troop crests and what they mean.
 As a service project, we collected toys and clothing for children in the local Interfaith Christmas Program the Angel Tree for children in need in our community. We also participated in Scouting for Food with the Boy Scouts to stock up our local food bank.
 We have had an adventure through time while we worked on Local Lore Badge. In the year 1898 seekers of GOLD headed up North to Alaska.
This officially started the Gold Rush of "98".
In 1998 we celebrated the 100th year since that faithful find. Our community has one of those mines. Independence Mine is said to still have GOLD in them there hills.
We visited the museum and learned about all kinds of tools that miners, trappers, Cheechakco and Sourdough might have used in their everyday life.
  And cookie sales start on
 In February us Alaskans Enjoy Fur Rendezvous
Since old times in Alaska this was the time of the year when the miners and trappers would bring their furs in to trade. The Iditrod Sled Dog Race from Anchorage to Nome tracks over 1000  miles of rugged Alaska wilderness. The girls have been busy raising funds to attend this event. We will be staying in a hotel with a swimming pool. The next day we will watch the Rondy Races then ride fast and scary rides at the fair.

Just want to say Hi to our little sister troop Brownie Troop 264.
