Girl Scouts: Booth-Making Day, Meeting, Admirals, Cookie Cash

Hi everyone!

Four notes today:

#1)  Booth Making Day:  We'll make our Wellness Day Booth stuff on April 7th in the morning.  Plan on 10:00-1:30, with a light lunch served in the middle.  If a scout has to arrive late or leave early, that's OK!  There's a lot of work to be done!  We know about scheduling issues, for sure!

#2)  Admirals:  In the absence of a lot of feedback, I'm just going to order all the free tickets our troop has coming, (10) and the first people to ask to use them, get them.  The game is at 6:00 on April 6th downtown at the UWM Panther Arena.  Our family won't be going, since Evie has Forensics state in the morning, and then is welcoming back an Honor Flight with her Air Patrol Unit in the evening. 

#3)  April Meetings:  We have our two meetings this month.  Our planning meeting (3:00-4:30)  is April 10th, and our action meeting  (3:00-5:00) is April 17th.  If we can plan quickly on the 10th, the girls were excited to head out and pick some of that invasive pest, and nuisance weed, garlic mustard and turn it into our patented Girl Scout Garlic Mustard Pesto--we'll bring the crackers!  Time willing we'll also do some clean up around the school, since the girls asked about it last meeting.

#4)  Cookie Cash:  If you haven't turned in your cookie money, please do!  The last withdrawal came out of our account, and because we maintain a good balance, we didn't get overdrawn, but if anyone doesn't turn in their money, the cookie sale changes from a fundraiser, to a fund-loser!

Finally:  I hope the girls remember their French International Fair project and what French activity they're supposed to do on April 1st!  Hint:  It sounds a little fishy!
