We had such a blast at our Alameda Open House, but don't take our word for it!

"Our Brownies had such an amazing experience. Marina and Michelle were so awesome with them. They were lucky to receive special patches. Especially the "CEO" patch for sharing their ideas. And after being able to sample some of the nut products they're selling, they're even more pumped up for the Fall Take Action Program. I am so glad I was able to get them to the event...all together. Thank you for the opportunity." ~ Troop 30159

Hi Michelle and Marina, Huge thank you for your dedication and service to the NorCal GS movement. I’ve experienced and saw countless young girls become so successful in their college years and careers because of their experience with GS. I wish you much deserved retirement and keep your sisters posted.

Many thanks and well wishes to Michelle and Marina for your dedication and years of service to scouting. Over 25 years ago, I worked in the Girl Scouts offices. I was in awe of Michelle’s commitment to the community and always being empathetic and welcoming. Many, many thanks for leading myself and other young women to dedicate their lives in service to others.

Marina and Michelle, I am completely in awe of the dedication, energy, and passion that you've both given to GSNorCal! You are leaving BIG shoes to fill, but I know that you've both put in place new processes, new organization structure, and new programs that will endure in the hands of your successors. A HUGE thank you for your leadership and your caring approach to running this organization! Sending love and blessings, Debbie Hall

To Marina & Michelle: I know you'll find it hard at first to disengage & slow down; however, you can leap tall buildings, so I know you can do this, too! I've enjoyed getting to know you over the years. Best wishes, Pat
