Rocky Mountain Credit Union Teaches Budgeting to Local Girl Scouts
July 1, 2016
Last Saturday, 250 girl scouts from Montana and Wyoming converged on the Lewis and Clark Fairgrounds in Helena for a day of activities. There they circulated through 30 stations where they dipped candles, made rope, branded logs, did archery and geocaching and other crafts. They also learned about budgeting (with candy) with MCUN's Nolan Glueckert and Rocky Mountain CU staff. The stations were to reflect "100 Years of Changing the World" -- and what better way to help change the perspective of youth than giving them the opportunity to figure out what it takes to budget for a month in a low-pressure, fun atmosphere.
