Mid October Announcements

First of all, thanks to everyone that came out to the Jungle Explorer Night at the Domes.  It sure was fun.  It was cool to see another Girl Scout Troop there too!

Second, our next meeting will be Oct. 25th, the last Thursday this month.  Meetings go until 5:00, but if a girl needs to leave early, they certainly can!  It's going to be tough to top last month (making those happiness necklaces was a huge hit!) but I have some ideas!  We may do some painting, so keep that in mind when picking clothes for the day.

Third,  I sent Nut Sale information home with the girls on Friday.  If you didn't get it, let me know and I'll send out a new packet.  The important things to know right away are:

  • Your girl must be registered to participate in the nut sale.
  • You have to sign the permission form and get it back to me at some point.
  • You don't need to collect money or pay for anything until the week after you pick up your order (Nov. 17th pickup).
  • The timeline is Oct. 12--start selling.  Oct. 26--turn in forms.  Nov. 17th--pick up order.  Nov. 28th--money due.

Fourth, some shameless beggary: As far as I can see, no one has signed up to help out at the meeting on the 25th.  The Troop is big enough that I really need the extra hands, so if anyone at all can spend the time after school that Thursday to help out, I would really really REALLY appreciate it.

Fifth, I still have some tickets available for the UWM Women's Soccer Team Girl Scout Day.  $3.00 gets the ticket, a patch, a hot dog, and soda.  The game is this Sunday (21st) at 1:00 at UWM's, Engelmann field.  If you're interested, let me know.  If your girl needs a ride, or just wants to go with the group, let me know too and we can totally arrange it!  

Sixth, don't forget the Halloween Haunt this Friday.  If you are using the tickets I got, remember to show up at 7:00 to watch the magician while we wait for our walk at 7:33.  Speaking of that, one parent doesn't need her ticket, so if you know someone that wants to join in, I have a spare!
