ARCH Service Unit

Girl Scout Promise

On my honor, I will try:
To serve God and my country,
To help people at all times,
And to live by the Girl Scout Law.

The Girl Scout Law

I will do my best to be
honest and fair,
friendly and helpful,
considerate and caring,
courageous and strong, and
responsible for what I say and do,
and to
respect myself and others,
respect authority,
use resources wisely,
make the world a better place, and
be a sister to every Girl Scout.

Welcome to the ARCH Service Unit!  ARCH supports troops in Avondale, Mt. Auburn, Evanston, Mt. Adams, Walnut Hills, Clifton, Clifton Heights, Corryville, West End, Over-the-Rhine, Pendleton, and the downtown business district.

The purpose of the service unit is to provide girls with access to the Girl Scout program through the development and support of troops, troop leaders, and beyond-the-troop activities.  Service units provide this support by organizing troops, providing program and training resources, and recruiting adult volunteers to work with girls in carrying out the Girl Scout program.

Do you like working with adults, planning activities or making phone calls?  We need volunteers to hold service team positions.  Contact Karen Freeman at 421-3082 for more information.

Add-A-Friend Campaign - Sept 30 - Nov 30, 2007

The Add-A-Friend Campaign provides girls and opportunity to invite their friends to join the fun of Girl Scouting.  Each troop that adds a friend between September 30 and November 30, will be entered into a drawing for a $20.00 LaRosa's Gift Certificate for your troop and each girl who has a friend join will receive a colorful free patch!  Just Attach the Add-A-Friend form to the girl registration forms and turn them into the service unit registrar.  The drawing for the girl certificate will take place at the December service unit meeting.
