Troop 1750 started as a Brownie Troop at Park Hill School – 12 years ago. As seniors in high school at Denver School of the Arts and East High School, the girls decided to wrap up their scouting career with self-defense training provided by a local non-profit, Impact Colorado. Through their Teen Workshop, troop members learned general awareness skills and physical self defense skills. The girls also explored verbal strategies to establish boundaries with both strangers and people they know. Troop 1750 thanked Impact Colorado’s staff and volunteers. “Thank you so much for your time and efforts to help our troop. Being empowered is really the greatest gift.”
