Send items for the weekly Loudoun e-Edition to:
Marla McIntyre [email protected] The e-Edition is emailed every Friday, so items must be received by close of business the prior Wednesday.
Loudoun e-Edition informs Girl Scouts and their leaders of opportunities that are available in Loudoun, Fauquier, and Northern Prince William counties. Many of these opportunities come from within Associations 70 and 90. However, there may be opportunities available by outside vendors and may require Council approval. GSCNC has not inspected these programs or vendors and there are no GSCNC representatives at these events. Goose Creek and Piedmont programs and GSCNC events that have low enrollment may also be listed.
