Greensburg Holiday Parade
All registered Girl Scouts (girls and adults) are invited to walk with the Central Westmoreland Service Unit in the Greensburg Holiday Parade! This is your opportunity to show your Girl Scout pride and show our community the power of Girl Scouts.
Date: Saturday, November 23, 2019
Time: The parade begins at Noon. All participants should meet at our assigned parade-staging location at 11:30 a.m. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE be on time and plan for traffic as most roads around our staging location will be closed.
Staging Location: TBA, but we have asked to be in the same staging location as last year which was on Main Street in front of the Art Museum.
Our 2019 Theme and What We Do: The parade organizers have asked that all marching groups stick with a Christmas theme. Therefore, this year we are going to be Santa's Girl Scout Reindeer. All participants should wear brown knit hats and use pipe cleaners to make "Reindeer Antlers" or purchase inexpensive antler headbands (typically available at the Dollar Store). Additionally, girls may want to paint their noses red!
We will have a sound system on the back of a truck (which will play "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer" and "Run Run Rudolph."
We welcome individual troops to bring and proudly display troop banners.
The absolute most important point of our presence in the parade is that we are together as a sisterhood of Girl Scouts celebrating who we are and all that we get to do and experience.
Girl and Adult Volunteers Needed: We will need girl volunteers (Cadette level and above) to carry flags (council flag, US flag, Pennsylvania flag). These girls must be in their official Girl Scout uniform (khaki-colored pants, white collared shirt, and Girl Scout vest or sash). Girls interested in carry a flag should email cwsu@centralwestmorelandsu.org.
We will also have some additional signage that we will randomly select participating girls to carry.
Each troop and/or indie girl must meet appropriate girl-to-adult ratio on their own. This ensures overall, we maintain the appropriate girl-to-adult ratio. We will position adults (troop leaders, parent volunteers, etc.) along the sides of our group and across the back.
Cost: There is no charge for this event.
RSVP: There is no need to RSVP for this event.
