Girl Scouts: Meeting Update, Earth Day Choice

Hi everyone!

The snow is melting, let's hope it all goes away!  Here's what I have for you for the moment:

#1)  Meeting update--the Boss Girls for Tie Dying agreed that it makes sense to do a different craft on Wednesday and to save nature tie-dying for a time when we're not in a social studies classroom!  So we'll be doing a different bit of nature art.  Here's what that means for you:

 You do NOT need to send a white t-shirt to the meeting to be tie-dyed 
 You do not need to send dye-making materials including:  spinach, beets, blackberries*, blueberries*, red cabbage, or raspberries.*

*IMPORTANT:  You may have to still send berries if your scout signed up for them for smoothies.  See the very bottom of the email for the supply/boss lists for the various activities.

#2)  Earth Day activity:  The votes are counted!  We'll be doing the South Shore Beach Clean Up at 10:00 on 4/20.  If you can attend, please email me so I can get a head count!  Does anyone need directions to South Shore Beach?

See you soon!  (Updated supplies email information included below.)
