Susan Corbett Celebrates Girl Scouts

Harrisburg – First Lady Susan Corbett today marked the 100th anniversary of the Girl Scouts by applauding the organization’s positive impact on girls throughout Pennsylvania. “I have fond memories of being a Girl Scout and a troop leader,” said Mrs. Corbett, who is Pennsylvania’s Honorary Chair of the 100th anniversary celebration. “I have seen first-hand how Girl Scouting builds confidence and leadership skills and provides young girls with experiences that last a lifetime.” Mrs. Corbett was joined at the Governor’s Residence in Harrisburg by 50 members of Pennsylvania’s 100th Anniversary Honorary Committee, which is made up of political figures, business leaders and community members from across the state. “Bringing together this group of women to celebrate Girl Scouts reminds us that for the past 100 years, it has prepared our girls to be the leaders of tomorrow,” said Mrs. Corbett. Harrisburg-area Girl Scouts kicked off today’s event with a flag ceremony. Centennial events will be held throughout Pennsylvania in the coming weeks.
