On March 4, 1925, the first Oradell Girl Scout troop of eight girls, (calling themselves the Bluebird Troop #1) met in the Reformed Church Parish House under the leadership of Mrs. Eleanor Cottrell and Miss Louise Touzeau. This was the beginning of Oradell Girl Scout's almost 100 year history! Today Oradell Girl Scouts number over 250. |
