Fox Island was home to scouts from Junior Girl
Scout Troop 4290, they met at the
Nichols Community Center. FICRA supports scouting in many ways, from
providing opportunities for scouts to serve the community, to providing
meeting space for island scout groups.
The many contributions to Fox Island from Scouts
over the years are greatly appreciated by FICRA and the Fox Island
community. |

Troop 290 is now Troop 4290 due to the consolidation
of the 2 Western Washington Councils, Totem and Pacific Peaks. We are
now called ''Girl Scouts of Western Washington.''
The co-leaders are Kelli Shepard and Karla Jo Tupper, assisted by the
other parents of the troop in a co-op troop organization. Interested families can contact
Girl Scouts of
Western Washington if they
would like to join us.
5th and 6th graders and are designated as
''Junior Girl Scouts.''

Troop 290 Plants Nature Garden
Girls from Fox Island's Junior Girl Scout Troop 290 recently
completed their Nature Garden as part of earning their Bronze
Award. This award is the highest honor a Junior Girl Scout can
earn.
The girls admire the completed garden. |
Tess, Sarah Aliya, and Heather stand atop the pile of dirt to be
spread over the garden area. |
|
Parents and members of Troop 290 add the
finishing touches to their Nature Garden, which include a small
dry creek bed, rhododendrons, forsythias, violets, poppies,
vinca, flowering almond, primroses, and other perennial flowers. |

Thanks go to Purdy Topsoil for their
donation of 7 yards of dirt; The Fox Island Garden Club for
their $100.00 donation (used to purchase plants) and FICRA for
their donation of leftover plants from the Annual Fox Island
Plant Sale.
