Getting to Know Our Volunteers: Alissa Poole

It's no secret that our incredible Girl Scout Volunteers help make this Movement strong! They devote countless hours and endless creativity to making sure Girl Scouting is a memorable experience for every girl. We're excited to introduce you to the Volunteer Corner of the GSCV blog; here is where you get to meet the people who are an irreplaceable part of our organization.  Today, we're excited to highlight Alissa Poole! She's been a Girl Scout Volunteer for over ten years, and has led her daughter's troop through many adventures, thousands of cookies sold, and endless opportunities to connect with their community.    Alissa Poole (left) and her co-leader, Anne Kush, from their 2022 camping trip. Q : What made you want to become a Girl Scout volunteer?  A : I’ve always volunteered with my kids’ activities and was active with the PTA at that time. I told my daughter I would lead the troop if no other parents signed up. I think that’s how many of us got our start. 😉
