Berges Family Creation and Imagination Station Construction

As of March 21, construction at the Berges Family Creation and Imagination Station is officially underway! Beginning with the dredging of Walker Lake, this first phase is planned for completion in early June 2024. The dredging, which is much needed, will get the lake back to its original depth and improve and extend the recreational life of the lake. Girl Scouts of Eastern Missouri is providing members the opportunity to watch what is happening at the construction site. A camera that provides a live feed of activities has been installed. It will be filming 24/7 through all phases of construction. Check out the live feed at girlscoutsem.org/herfutureisourfuture .

With sincerest appreciation and gratitude, we recognize those who made a memorial or tribute gift to Girl Scouts of Eastern Missouri from October 1, 2023 to April 30, 2024. Memorials and Tributes
