Ball game and opportunity for Cadettes

I think everyone had a great time at the ball game today. I would have loved it more if I won the 50/50 but still had a wonderful time.

The walk on the field was pretty cool.

We made 120.74 dollars the other night so I divided it up for the girls who were there the entire time and those that were there about half. It has been added to your Savannah fund


Opportunity for Cadettes only this includes ones that will bridge to cadettes in October. If you want to do this you will need to bring 10 dollars to the next meeting so I can order your spot in the event. The 10 dollars includes lunch. The cadettes will earn their tree badge. This is a wonderful opportunity to learn from Foresters. Sydney, Bri, Joyce and myself are probably going.
Depending on the number of girls who want to go we can carpool down to Stone Mountain. Sorry Juniors but this is only for the Cadettes.... Your time will come up soon
