Next meeting & Tin Caps

Cookie sales are officially over and the girls earned more than $600 for our troop! We talked at the last meeting about what we'd like to do to celebrate. They came up with a lot of good ideas: A spa day, Chuck E Cheese, Crazy Pins, Cedar Point (uh...no), Build-A-Bear, Painting Fun Spot. I suggested a camp I found a couple of hours away that has a rock climbing wall, zip line, and ropes course. And Lisa suggested the Girl Scouts overnight at the Tin Caps.

So the girls voted and the winner is...an overnight at the Tin Caps! It sounds like a lot of fun. The girls will attend the game with fireworks after. When that's done, they'll show a movie and have pizza, and after THAT we will all collapse into sleeping bags on the field under the stars or in a tent, exhausted. The Tin Caps provide breakfast the next morning, and then we all go home.

The nice thing about this is that families and siblings can do it too. Sure, you like your bed at home, but haven't you always wanted to sleep on a baseball field surrounded by hundreds of Girl Scouts? Wait, don't answer that. :-) Details will be coming soon.

Our next meeting would have been April 2nd but that's spring break, so we won't be meeting again until April 16. See you then!
