Girl Scouts: First summer activity, the campout!

Hi everyone!

The campout's almost here, so I have some information on the schedule, and a sign up genius page for anyone to help bring supplies.

The girls voted to have a "Medieval Madness" theme, so you'll see a lot of that in the activities.  If you have some other ideas, I can still try to add them in too.  So, on we move to the schedules:

There are actually 2 schedules.  First we have:

Schedule 1
(The schedule if we can't find any more parent helpers.)

Friday 4:00-10:00
Try to keep the girls in order.  Try to have some dinner at some point.  Try to manage to keep anyone from getting hurt.
Saturday All Day
Try to keep the girls in order.  Try to have some breakfast/lunch/dinner at some point.  Try to manage to keep anyone from getting hurt.
Sunday 8:00-10:00
Try to keep the girls in order.  Try to have some breakfast at some point.  Try to manage to keep anyone from getting hurt.

OR, there's schedule 2
(The schedule if we can get more help.)

So, that's a lot of fun stuff.  I've included spots in the Sign Up Genius page for parent helpers at different times if you couldn't chaperone for a whole overnighter, but still wanted to join in the fun.

Speaking of the supplies sign up genius list, here it is:


And you can still sign up a scout for the campout, or a parent to chaperone for an overnight here:


Thanks!  It should be awesome!
