           New Phone Numbers at Hornets Nest Council:  The new main number is 731-6500.   Union 2 Field 
                     Director, Demerye Lawrence, 731-6522.  The number for the store is 731-6526.  The fax, program information

                     As you take your troops places during the year, please email the webmaster with info on any you'd like to recommend.

      Online Training:  A lot of the Council training is available online at www.hngirlscouts.org.  Includes Orientation
                      and Safety Wise Update.  To get credit, you must register.

            Pass-It-On's are now available on the What's New page of the Hornets Nest Council Website.  

CallingPost (see below) is now charging 5 cents per call.  This is still such a big timesaver that for many of us, it is worth the expense.

    DISTRICT MEETING MINI-TRAININGS --

Starting with the September 10, 2001 District Leader Meeting, we will have 30 minute Mini-Trainings on a variety of topics!  See the Calendar page for topics to be covered at each meeting.

GREAT TIMESAVER -- CallingPost.org

CallingPost provides free message delivery service to non-profit organizations.  You can set up different groups of people to be called, record a message and CallingPost will deliver the message for you!  The number will be called until the phone is answered.  All calls are made between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m.  The listener will hear the name of the caller, a brief advertisement and then your message.  To set your troop up to receive messages, visit their website CallingPost.org or call 1-888-808-POST.  (This is the same service Union 2 is using this to remind us of meetings and upcoming events this year.)
