Girl Scouts in need of troop leader
The Easton Girl Scouts are currently looking for adult volunteers to lead a new troop of girls in Kindergarten and grade one.
Troop 691, the troop currently based in Easton, can no longer take on younger girls in order to better care for their current members of girls in grades 2-8. A second troop and new leaders are needed to keep the Girl Scouting traditions and experiences alive in our great community of Easton.
Anyone can apply to be a Girl Scout volunteer. You do not have to be a Girl Scout mom to be a leader. Dads, grandparents, aunts, uncles and even moms with sons who just want some “girl time” can apply to be a volunteer!
Each troop needs two unrelated, Girl Scouts of Maine-approved volunteers, one of which is a female, to work together as its leaders. Those interested in being a volunteer or if you have a daughter who would like to join Girl Scouts should contact Kris Lento at 207-488-2632 or krislento@gmail.com.

“RIPPED for Kids” comes to Easton
The Easton Recreation Department is excited to announce they are kicking off the new year with a new children’s program and classes include exercise time, socialization and healthy snacks.
The program will run for four sessions Thursday afternoons from 3-4 p.m. at the Hall Jan. 28 through Feb. 25, 2016. The cost is $21. Please register as soon as possible at recreation@eastonme.com. Steph McKeen of Arya Wellness will be offering the program.
What is R.I.P.P.E.D 4 Kids? The goal is to educate children and provide an inclusive exercise environment in order to increase their motor, cognitive and affective development. We have a “Captain’s Code,” which is a creed, of sorts, for children to learn and master as they achieve their physical successes.
