Girl Scouts: Nut Sale, and keep your eyes open!

Hi everyone!

First:
I have a living room full of nuts and candy!  If you want to pick yours up, text me or call at 414-595-6668 and we can connect and get yours to you.  Money is not due right away, but is due November 28th, so you have time to deliver to people meeting for Thanksgiving.  

Thank you so much to everyone who participated!  The sale raised about $200 for the troop to help support our activities, snacks, and everything else that goes along with scouting.

Second:
Keep your eyes open in the next couple days for a long list of choices for the girls to get involved in this year.  I've been approached by a bunch of people this year about projects that they'd like our scouts to have a role in.  Everything from an organization starting in Greendale that's working to help respond to the growing opioid problem, to other scouts that want to put on an Earth Day/World Thinking Day event that's all Girl-led, to the various projects and activities the girls themselves picked out at our last meeting.  

Third:  
Do you remember the Highland View Boy Scout vs. Girl Scout Raingutter regatta? It's happening again!  And if any of our scouts that are still at Highland View want to participate, let me know and I'll get a boat kit to you!  It's November 29th, 6:00-8:00 PM in the Highland View Gym, as usual.

AND for our GMS scouts, the Highland View Girl Scouts have asked if we'd like to help at the regatta this year.  Jobs would include keeping the "Best Design" table organized, checking scouts and their boats in, running the craft tables, and helping set up and clean up.  Who wants to do a little service for our old school?

Happy Scouting!
