Hello scout families!
There's a lot coming up, so here's reminders and sign ups for everything!
1) First, this Thursday 12/11 is the Girl Scouts vs. Boy Scouts Raingutter Regatta. If you contacted me about it, you should have your boat kit in hand by now (except Katie, but you're getting it tomorrow, and Dea if it the concert isn't going to conflict for you.) So, we expect to see those scouts there representing Girl Scouts! It's in the Highland View gym from 6:00-8:00.
2) Second, meeting Sign Ups are ready! The choices are Wednesday December 17th, and Thursday December 18th. In addition to doing some games, and a winter craft, we're going to officially start putting our plans to make a difference in our community into action. Here's the link to the sign up page.
***REMINDER FOR HIGHLAND VIEW STUDENTS: PLEASE REMEMBER TO MARK YOUR SCOUT'S AGENDA FOR THE DAY YOU CHOOSE!***
Also, as always, if you can, please stay at the meeting and help out. It's not too much work, and it really makes a difference! Here's that link!
3) Third, this Friday-Saturday 12/12-12/13 is the Cookie CEO Sleepover at Camp Pottawatomie Hills. We'll be leaving our house at 5:00, and expect to return at 4:00 on Saturday. Breakfast will be provided, but you'll need to pack a lunch for Saturday, and a snack for Friday night (assuming you eat something dinner-ish before we leave. Also, Friday night, we'll be working on a cookie related Rube Goldberg devie, so if you want to pack building materials (paper tubes, recycled containers, popsicle sticks, cardboard, marbles, etc.) that would be cool too. Any items are allowed as long as they do not present any safety concerns.
Finally, doing some basic math, I have room for 8 scouts on the way up, and 11 scouts on the way back (Mrs. Skibicki is coming up after she gets out of work, so won't arrive at camp until 8:00 or so.) What that means is that I'm searching for a parent that could drive their scout to camp that Friday night. (We could bring her back on Saturday.)
Here's who I have registered for the Cookie CEO sleepover event:
Gabby H.
Evie S.
Lia S.
Teagan A.
Adrhia F.
Katie B.
Megha M.
Maya H.
Olivia Ka.
Ms. Kelly
Mr. Aleks
Mrs. Skibicki (after work)
4) There's still room for scouts to join us doing crafts and eating snacks with the residents of the Elizabeth Residence Nursing Home. Sign up for that here.
5) I'm ready to put in the ticket order for the Wave Game on 1/25. So if anyone else is interested in going, let me know now, so we get seats all together. As far as I can tell there's no deadline to order tickets, but if the orders get separated, our seats probably will too.
Details I have so far:
It's for the 1/25/2015 game at 3:00 PM vs. the Wichita B-52's.
In addition to being Girl Scout day, it's also "Princesses and Superheroes" day so you can wear any princess or superhero gear you want.
Parents and siblings are all invited.
Tickets are $15 for Premier tickets, $20 for Preferred, or $25 for VIP level tickets.

"Before the game there will be a Girl Scout Parade
Girl Scouts will get a Wave patch
There'll be a pre-game discussion with local trainers, nutritionists, and others on healthy living
Participation in fun activities on the field (Troop relay races, Soccer obstacle course, and more!)"
That's all for now! Happy scouting!
Aleks
