On January 14th ten girls attended the third Girls on Their Way Leadership Training program, the girls that attended were from a Girl Scout Troop and a Youth Group. During the training the girls were shown the new Junior League of Rockford video.
JLR member Amy Ekstrom talked to the girls about making friends within the Junior League and what the difference is between a healthy and unhealthy friendship. She also talked with the girls about self esteem. Junior League member Kelly Monson talked to the group about leadership and teamwork and they participated in a scavenger hunt around JLR headquarters. The girls also learned about how to make a good first impression by JLR member Stephanie Wasemiller. JLR member Leslie Wester talked to the girls about healthy eating, diabetes, and did a short Zumba class with the girls. The girls had a really great time!
