The Girl Scouts of San Jacinto Council is proud to host Girl Scout historians and archivists for a 4-day Historians Conference.  The event will be held at the Goodykoontz Museum of Girl Scout History, with classes led by GSUSA staff, special guests, and GSSJC volunteers.  Topics include archival techniques, ways of work for historians, how to enhance your exhibits with the use of QR codes, a peek behind the scenes into the workings of our museum, and more.  Our special guest Margaret Gordon Iwanchuk, Juliette Low's great-great niece, will also share a collection of Daisy's personal belongings and artifacts, along with fun family stories about her treasures and travels.
