History of Our Troop

Troop #456 was formed in August, 1999 as a Daisy Troop by Maria Perez. Ms. Maria how the girls called her, was assiting her sister Elizabeth with her Jr. troop, then. She was not married and had no children but, she loved kids and Girl Scouts so, she decided to open a troop for her little nieces to join. Her teenage nieces, Vivian Nevares and Elianne Maldonado were her assistants. She bridged her little Daisies to Brownies but due to her job Ms. Maria could not be the leader after the first Brownie year. Her sister Elizabeth, GS Leader for 7 years and had Cadettes already, took over. The troop bridges to Jrs. last year. Now Ms. Elizabeth with Ms. Maria's and Elianne's help, and with Vivian as her Co- Leader are just ending their 1st JR. year. And looking foward for many more exating years in Girl Scouting.
