Girl Scouts: Parade Day Sunday!

Hello everyone!

Just a last reminder about the Village Days parade on Sunday.  We'll meet up in our usual spot in the Southridge parking lot off of Grange (by Macy's).  If you're planning on marching, try to be there between 11:30-11:45.  We'll have the Girl Scout Flags on top of our van so we should be easy to see in the lot!

And other dates to remember:

August 14th:  Bay View Beach Cleanup 6:30-8:00.  This is STILL my favorite service project for the girls.  It's relaxing for the grownups (Imagine the sound of the breeze and waves drifting off the lake, just vegging out while you stroll the beach picking up trash.) and the girls have fun searching out trash and cleaning up too.  It's a great way for them to see that a service project can be fun too.  AND, if you're into a late dinner, we swing over to Classic Slice Pizza in Bay View afterwards where beach cleaners all get free (great!) pizza!

August 17th:  Renaissance Faire Scout Day!  We've gone with scouts the last two years, and the girls have really enjoyed it!  You don't have to dress up like a  princess, but if your scout wants to, she is welcome to.  ANY SCOUT (Boy Scout, Girl Scout, Spiral Scout) is welcome to participate. Leaders and scouts IN uniform receive a discount for their entire party - no coupon needed. Adults $15. Child (age 5-12) $5. (I'll be in uniform, so our whole group will get the discount.)  We'll meet up at our house at 9:00 and plan to leave at 9:15 sharp, in order to be at the Faire for the 10:00 opening.
