The Art Group (TAG)
Room C10
The Art Group (TAG) meets on the 1st, 3rd, and 5th Thursday morning of each month at 9:30 AM. We are intermediate level watercolor painters. For each meeting we have a ‘theme’ to paint. It could be an object (birds, window, trees), a technique (salt, weaving, value study), or a style (abstract, impressionism). We learn, share our finished paintings, help and encourage each other, and paint together.
Girl Scouts – Troops 3355 & 13355
Trinity Hall
The troop started 7 years ago with 5 girls with autism. In the last 3 years the troop has grown to 30 girls, the majority of whom are on the autism spectrum and related diagnoses or have physical disabilities. The troops currently serve girls from K5 to 7th grade from 3 counties (including nearby Blythe Elementary and Hughes Middle schools), and are open to all girls. Troop 3355 is our elementary aged troop, and Troop 13355 serves our older girls. The purpose of our combined troop is to serve girts who have special challenges and provide them with a Girl Scout experience adapted to meet their needs while fulfilling the Girl Scout mission of building girls of courage, confidence, and character to make the world a better place. The troops meet on Sundays from 2:30-4:00, roughly every other week.
