Our little ladies have recently been learning about democracy and what it means to vote and have a say in choosing the important things! We talked about the part of the government, adults choosing their leaders, and then we voted as a group on our troop crest. We had a primary and general election. In the primary, our ladies narrowed the choices of crest to three. In the general election, the popular vote was for the unicorn!

It stands for courage and beauty and I think it’s the perfect crest for our Troop.

Don’t forget to get out there and cast your votes today! Having a say and using your voice is important!
