Another Way to Support Girl Scouts... Go Shopping!
   That's right, go head and buy something -- a new CD, the latest bestseller, essentials like toothpaste or vitamins, even a computer. But first join www.iGive.com. Every time you shop at one of the over 500 name-brand stores in the Mall at iGive.com (like Amazon, JC Penney, Land's End and many more), the Girl Scout Council will receive a donation of up to 26% of each purchase you make, at no cost to you.
    Remember, donating to Girl Scouts won't cost you a thing through this method. But we'll miss out on extra money to help Girls Grow Strong if you don't join. So visit iGive.com now. Membership is free and your privacy is guaranteed.

Horseback Riding
Council-approved stables include the River Valley Ranch in Carver (almost to Jordan) -- 952-361-3361 -- and Bunker Park Stables in Coon Rapids -- 763-757-9445. Remember to contact the council in advance and reserve the headgear required per SafetyWise. The council is always looking for stables to add to their list! To make a recommendation or reserve your horseback riding equipment, contact Sandy Knilans at SKnilans@girlscoutsmpls.org.
