I think all the girls that went had a lot of fun yesterday and learned a few Girl Scout songs

Today we have a meeting and I have some awards, patches, and cookie prizes to give out.
We will also work on the remaining part of our Junior and brownie journeys
The juniors will be working on their Bronze award..

I have a Bow and Arrow Trainer for us to learn how to shoot we will talk about this as a summer activity
still working on the camping for the summer, but I will tell you I am back in school and will be unavailable for some of the summer so we may have to wait till August I am sorry about that.


We will hold the moving up ceremony in August 2012 for those moving up to Juniors and Cadettes. This way the Juniors can fininsh their Bronze award this summer as well as anyone who wants to earn a few more patches.. Remember you can work on them at home just have your parents sign off on the papers I have given out.

I have snacks today
I have also registered all the girls who filled out applications to join next year.
