[edit] Incorrect information about the Girl Scout Council of Vermont

The Girl Scout Council of Vermont covers all of Vermont except parts of eastern Vermont. There are 60 towns in eastern Vermont that belong to the 50-year-old (in 2008) Girl Scouts of Swift Water Council, headquartered in Bedford, New Hampshire, but with several other regional offices, and serving girls throughout NH and eastern Vermont. Although Girl Scouting has been in NH for 94 years, 50 years ago several councils merged to form Swift Water Council, named for the fast-running Connecticut River which runs between Vermont and NH. This will all be just a part of history in 2009, when Girl Scout Council of Vermont and Girl Scouts of Swift Water Council merge to form one new council, part of a nationwide "realignment" process of Girl Scouts of the USA (of which we are chartered organizations)to streamline operations and open up more opportunities and choices for Girl Scouts. Under rules from GSUSA, the girls themselves will come up with ideas for a new council name and vote on it. Girl Scouts of Swift Water Council has almost 14,000 girls in NH and eastern VT, who are supported by 4,200 trained and dedicated volunteers. The mission of GSSWC is to build girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place. See www.swgirlscouts.org for more information, and to find updates on the realignment process as it occurs. 75.68.59.255 (talk) 00:36, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
