 Hi everyone!

Just a reminder for tomorrow (Saturday 10/23). (Colette, Quinn, Carrie, Evie)

I'm looking at October 23rd, Leaving our house around 4:30, and getting back around 10:15 ish. 

(Quinn:  We'll come get you, and know you have a ride picking you up from Old World Wisconsin early.)

We'll eat there. Dress warm!

Old World Wisconsin Update

Hi everyone,

I just went to the Old World Wisconsin Site, and they are all sold out.  I did already buy tickets for everyone I mentioned in the last email (Quinn, Carrie, Colette, Evie).

If you weren't on that list but still want to go--let me know ASAP!  I would be surprised if I couldn't wrangle my way into an extra ticket if I let them know our Girl Scout troop has gone every year, etc.  

We'll meet at our house around 4:15, and plan to be back around 10:30.  As I mentioned, we'll have dinner there.

If you really want to go, I will do my best to make it happen!

Girl Scouts: Last day to enter orders for Nut Sale tomorrow

Hi everyone,

Just one last reminder that the last day for you to enter nuts and candy sales online is tomorrow (10/18).  I have until 10/20 if you miss that deadline to enter for you.

If you haven't set up your account at Me2, (you should have gotten a link from Girl Scouts a few weeks ago) here's that link again:

https://www.gsnutsandmags.com/Campaign/Account/Register/844

Speaking of stuff we do with the money from the Nut Sale, during the Fun Run today I saw our walking path signs are still up and looking great from our Silver Project, and I attached a couple of our campout pictures!

And coming up:  I have:  Colette, Evie, Carrie, and Quinn signed up for Old World Wisconsin Halloween on 10/23.  Anyone else?  We'll have dinner there, and there's enough room in vehicles for more if anyone wants to join in.  Other nights of the event are sold out already, so let me know ASAP if you want to go but aren't on that list! 

Happy Scouting!

Aleks 

P.S.  Please think about stuff YOU would like to do this year!  We can be more in person so there are lots of opportunities!

Girl Scouts: last chance fir Old World WI Halloween!

Hi everyone!

First:  still hoping for your suggestions on scout work for the year—

Girls:  Take a moment and pick out a Senior Girl Scout Journey you think we should work on this year.  A good list is at this link, along with documents detailing potential activities for each stage in those journeys.  We'll do them in a combination of virtual, in person, and maybe even reserve another day/night at camp during winter to do some work on it too.

Second:  October Spooky Fun!  I have to preorder tickets and this has sold out in the past, so if you're interested, let me know!  Rides available. 

Another troop tradition is a Halloween event.  Old World Wisconsin has its Legends and Lore event again this year, and it is always a TON of fun.  

I'm looking at October 23rd, Leaving our house around 4:30, and getting back around 10:15 ish. 

Who is interested?

#3)  Volunteer opportunity!

The Greendale Fire Department is holding an event on 10/16 from 9-3 and they could use some volunteers to help with activities like fire extinguisher use, trying on firefighter clothes, cpr training, etc.    Is anyone available and interested in helping out?

#4)  GSWISE Nut Sale

The Nut and Candy Sale starts now.  You should have gotten an email link from Girl Scouts, and I can get you the paper order cards if you're interested!  Orders need to be in by October 18th, and this year there are a bunch of new things on the menu!  https://www.gswise.org/content/dam/girlscouts-gswise/documents/WisconsinSoutheast2021_OT_v2.pdf

Hope school is going well!

Hi everyone!

September's campout was pretty great!  Now that we're all acclimated to school, it's time to get things rolling.

Four things right now:

#1)  A little prep work for the girls.  Girls:  Take a moment and pick out a Senior Girl Scout Journey you think we should work on this year.  A good list is at this link, along with documents detailing potential activities for each stage in those journeys.  We'll do them in a combination of virtual, in person, and maybe even reserve another day/night at camp during winter to do some work on it too.
