I really enjoyed meeting each of you and your daughters last week! I hope they all had a good time at their first official troop 361 meeting! It has come to my attention that we need to have one more mom sign up as a "co-leader" due to our numbers being so high in our troop. We need one mom for every 6 girls, and currently we have 2 moms for 16 girls. If ANYONE is willing to commit to being present at each meeting and helping out during the meetings let me know. WE WILL NOT ASK YOU TO DO MORE THAN THAT and you will not be expected to plan for or facilitate meetings for us, unless of course you want to. We just need someone else to call "co-leader" to be in compliance. If you know you are going to stay at most meetings than it might make sense for that mom to be you.
We didn't get to all the activities I was hoping to get to on our first night. I would like to start our next meeting with some more getting to know you activities to help our girls join one another. Don't forget the scavenger hunt. You do not need to collect everything on the list. Any items gathered should be placed in a bag so she can "show and tell" what she found with the group. Remember we are going to be making bird feeders so please come with pine cones (Medium to large) and wearing something you can possibly soil. I am going to bring table cloths and a vacuum just in case. I know we have 2 girls with allergies to peanut butter, please remind me when we get there so we can assure that no one is exposed. I will bring another base for those girls to use for their mixture.
Lastly, there is a dance on Saturday at the Mineral Springs Methodist Church which is being sponsored by a girl scout ambassador troop. I sent out a flyer. Let me know if you need another one, or if you are joining us there. Some of us are also trying to plan an outing to see the Book of Life. Check back for the date/time for this.
Feel free to post here anytime!
