Juneteenth (June 19) commemorates the end of slavery in the United States. In observance of this important federal holiday, also known as Juneteenth National Independence Day, all GSNNJ Service Centers and Shops will be closed on Wednesday, June 19, 2024.
Each year, we encourage our Girl Scouts and community to participate in area celebrations and to share on social media any Juneteenth observances.
