Girl Scouts: Camp weekend!

Hi everyone!

Camp weekend is coming up in a few days, so I wanted to make sure we're all ready to go!

Camp is at Silverbrook, as usual, and a packing list is at the end of the email.

I have Colette, Evie, Ellen, attending both nights
I have Eva M., Teagan, and Katie attending, but need to confirm dates.  (Please let me know!)
Anyone else?  

Choices:  
1)  Just daytime Saturday, 
2)  Friday Overnight and Saturday Day, 
3)  Saturday Day and Saturday Overnight, or 
4)  Both Friday and Saturday Overnight.

In terms of transportation:

Friday:  I can bring a vanload of girls to camp right after school on Friday--if you want to jump in on that, either have your scout bring her gear to school or drop it off at our house during the day Friday.

Saturday:  If your scout is coming up on Saturday morning, or returning on Saturday evening/afternoon then she would need a ride.

Sunday:  Kathleen and I both will have vehicles to bring scouts back on Sunday, and plan to be back in Greendale at about 11:00AM since Evie has other obligations at noon.  Between us we should be able to fit everyone returning Sunday, even if it is literally everyone.  

Please let me know how your scout plans to get to camp and get home afterwards.

Packing List:
