Goodfellow, Mary Ann. "A History of Girl Scouting in Fairmont", 1982

 Collection — Folder: 1
Identifier: SMHC Collection 1310

Abstract

This collection consists of a typed transcript of an interview conducted with Catherine Blesi. Blesi was a long time supporter of the Girl Scouts of Fairmont, Minnesota. She was president of the Fairmont Girl Scouts Council from 1936 until 1940. The typescript was compiled by using quotations from a taped interview from Blesi. The result is an interesting, but sometimes difficult to follow, narrative of Blesi’s personal experiences in Fairmont. She reminisces about selling cookies in the neighborhoods of Fairmont, various activities and programs of the Fairmont Girl Scouts, and trips that she has taken throughout the world.
