Hello everyone!
There are a lot of BIG things coming up, so here's what everyone needs to know:
1) Cub Scouts vs. Girl Scouts Raingutter Regatta I'll have the boat kits for the girls who signed up in hand on Friday, and will get them to scouts throughout next week. The event is on 11/23 at Highland View. You can pay for the boat kit at the event.
2) This Friday's Discovery World STEMFest event: We have enough drivers! Woohoo! No one has to walk, so that's nice. The plan is to meet at our house at 4:15, unless you're one of the families with whom I've already talked about alternatives. Traditionally we're back at our house by 8:45 for events at Discovery World.
3) November Meeting Sign Ups are live. I'm always looking for the extra parent help. We'll be doing some cooking based activities this month--our badgework matches up just right with Thanksgiving. Every girl will need to bring a microwaveable coffee mug with her to the meeting for one of the activities. Here's the sign up page:
4) Discovery World Taste The Future Overnight Event December 18-19th. These Discovery World Overnight events are always a blast. This one is new for this year, so even the girls that did the Spa Chemistry Sleepover the last couple of years should have an exciting time.
Here's the summary:
18-19 Taste the Future Overnight Event 7:00PM 12/18- 7:00AM 12/19
$35/Scout, $10/Adult
Discovery World Museum
Come experience Discovery World's interactive exhibits after dark! Enjoy spending time at Discovery World, and then participate in a hands-on lab exploring your taste buds and learning about innovations meant to fool your senses. End the night watching a movie in our theatres wake up to a sunrise over Lake Michigan.
We're going to try to register for this one a little differently than in the past. I'm going to have everyone get used to their Girl Scout ebiz accounts to register themselves. Many of you have already used it. If you haven't, you find the site here: https://gsusa.ebiz.uapps.net/vp/Home.aspx The big advantage of registering this way is that if girls earned PAC's from the cookie sale, or from the nut sale (which you'll get after the 14th) you can use them on ebiz to pay for events.
If you haven't used the site, you'll have to set up an account, you can do that from that page. Our Troop number is 8035 (or 08035) for 4th graders, and 8036 for 5th graders (or 08036). If you never registered your scout as a scout, you can also set up your scout registration there too.
Once you're logged in, click on the "Activities" tab.
Then search for "Taste."
The first event that comes up on that search is the "Taste the Future Sleepover"
Click on the name of the event, then scroll to the bottom and click on the "Register Now" button.
The rest should be pretty straightforward!
If you have questions, let me know and I'll figure out what's wrong. If you need the troop to cover the admission for the event, let me know and I'll do the registration.
5) NEXT Friday 11/13 has another Discovery World Event. The Junior Detectives badge event! This one should be a lot of fun. The list of who signed up is below. As you can see, that's 27 scouts! So, starting with 8 car spaces available, we'll need 19 more! This event is only from 6:00 to 8:00, so we'll meet at our house at 5:15 and be back around 8:45. Please let me know if you can carpool. As always, if you can drive other scouts, then your parking and registration for your scout will be covered by the troop.
Just a note: The money's already been paid, so anyone who cancels at this point and can't find a replacement will still be responsible for the registration fee.
