First Aid!

On Monday we are starting work on our next badge, a first aid badge. We'll talk about 911 when the meeting starts, and at 6:45 we'll go into the fire station to take a half-hour tour. See you then!

Happy New Year!

The Father-Daughter Dance is coming up! It will be held February 4 from 6:30-8:30 at the Coliseum. If you need the sign-up form, please let me know.

Please plan to have one parent stay for the meeting on the 9th. I'll be talking about cookie stuff, and you'll be telling us how many of each kind you'd like. We are able to pick up cookies on the 13th, and if you want yours right away, you can pick them up at Kim Waugh's house after the 13th. Kim is our cookie mom. We'll have contact information for Kim at the meeting.

If you're not worried about getting cookies right away, you can wait to pick them up at our meeting on Jan. 23. Cameron is bringing snack.

See you Monday!

Meeting Monday and Painting Fun Spot!

Hello Brownie parents!

Our next meeting is Monday, Nov. 21. Anna is bringing snack.

For the December meeting (Dec. 5), we thought it would be fun to take a trip to Painting Fun Spot (where we made ornaments last year). It's located at the shopping center at the corner of Scott and Illinois Rd. Here's a map for those of you who have never been there. http://bit.ly/t4Ika6

The troop has enough funds to cover the entire cost of the trip, so all you need to do is drop off your Brownie at 6:30. We'll be done by 7:30, as usual.

That meeting in December is our last meeting before the holidays. After that, we'll see you again in January (the 9th). Cookie sales officially start the following week! I am not yet sure whether we'll have cookies available for pick up at that meeting, or if you'll be picking them up at the following one, so please check back here for updates. I'm also planning to have the cookie booth at the Scotts at Chestnut Plaza (Scott & Illinois Rd). We'll do it two Saturdays in a row, hopefully right after cookie sales start. I'll have a sign up sheet at the first meeting in January. Please be sure to sign up! All cookie sales the group makes are divided equally between the girls that attend the booth, and those sales count toward your daughter's total cookie sales. This translates into Cookie Cash!

More details will follow. See you Monday night!

Cookie Kick-Off!

It's Cookie Kick-Off time! Cookie Kick-Off is a fun get together with other Daisy and Brownie scouts in the SWAC area to get fired up for cookie season. This event is planned by Cadette and Senior Girl Scouts, so it's also a fun time for the younger girls to see older Girl Scouts in action.

This year's Cookie Kick-Off will be held Friday, December 2 at Aldersgate Church (2417 Getz Rd). The cost is $3 per girl. The girls will earn a badge for going.

Parents are welcome to come, no charge, but the people in charge ask that you not stand around in the rooms chatting on the phone, since the rooms are small and it would be distracting.

I'll have forms at the next meeting if you'd like to sign up. Space is limited--they're about half full already, so if you know you want to come, please email me at huff.kristin@gmail.com and I'll reserve a spot for your daughter.

Last night's meeting/Delete a date

We had lots of fun at last night's meeting. The girls painted a mural of girls around the world. We managed to got only a little paint on the walls and floor, and everyone had fun!

I had scheduled a meeting for April 2, but Lindsey pointed out this is the week of spring break for FWCS. So we're cancelling that meeting. If you had it on your calendar, you can delete it!

Also, I finally updated the snack schedule, so you can see what day you've signed up for over on the right.

November? Already?

It's true, it's November. And we have a meeting coming up on Monday, so we hope to see you there! The girls will be earning their painting badge. It's going to be a great time, and possibly messy (you think?), so have the girls wear old clothes. Cate Bilodeau is bringing snack.

Our next meeting after that is the Monday of Thanksgiving week. I debated choosing that day because I wasn't sure how many people would actually be able to make it. Let us know what you think on Monday, okay? If no one is going to be able to make it, we can always cancel that meeting.

See you Monday!

Meeting on the 17th!

Hello everyone!

We will be making smoothies and a Halloween craft on Monday the 17th. It's going to be a blast! Snack is being provided by Jessica. See you then!
