Girl Scouts: Second Call on Ice Fishing

I know, it sounds totally nuts to even think about outdoor activities when it's this cold right now, but here goes:

I just wanted to send another email out to test the waters on trying ice fishing at Scout Lake on 2/8.  Last year a handful of the girls did some ice fishing on Milwaukee County's free fishing day, and they had a lot of fun.  (To be honest, half the fun was sliding around on Scout Lake!)  This year a fishing organization will be providing all the equipment, so we just have to show up bundled and ready to have fun.  The clinics are geared for kids too, so they're ready to keep the girls' attention.  With luck, this year someone will even catch something!

I've included the flyer again as an attachment.  I only heard from a couple folks last time, but I hope we can get a nice group out there.  I do think the girls will like it, and who knows...we are working on our cooking badges right now...

And of course we'll all shoot over for some hot chocolate afterwards to warm up.  

As always, if someone's scout might be interested, but the parents prefer the warmth, let me know and we can arrange rides/etc.
