THIS WEEK: Field Trip, Ballet & Cookies

Hello Brownie Parents,
Below are a few reminders for upcoming events & important dates for THIS WEEK.
As a Troop, we talked about these with the girls during Brownie Circle time, but we realize that not all information comes home...
1) Just a reminder the Brownie Troop is doing a Field Trip to the Girl Scout Museum in Waltham on Thursday. The 3 Troop leaders and Sagan's and Ayushi's moms are driving. Unless you hear otherwise from your driver, Brownies are meeting at the parking lot of our typical meeting site at 1:30 p.m. The tour starts at 2:30 p.m. and will last about an hour.
Please have your daughter where her Brownie vest. Also as this is an official Brownie activity, please have her wear a white or cream top and brown pants or skirt. A brown-colored dress is fine, as is a brown top.If you have any questions, please contact any of the leaders.

2) Last week, the Brownies worked on the requirements for the Dancercise Try-It. Some of the girls inquired about seeing a LIVE ballet. Dance Prism, a Boston-area professional ballet company, is offering Girl Scouts an opportunity to experience a special afternoon of ballet plus a post-performance tea party at a discounted ticket price. The Alice in Wonderland Ballet takes place at 2:30 p.m. on Sunday, April 5 at Mechanics Hall in Worcester. There is a special pre-show talk/tour at 1:30 p.m. for Scouts. And a post-performance tea party with pastries and the chance to meet some of the dancers. Cost is $12 for Scouts and $18 for adults. (family members may attend at this group rate too.)
***The good news is that a dozen Brownies from another Troop will be joining us at the ballet, so we have the minimum needed for the Scout discount.
*** The deadline to sign up is tomorrow, Tuesday, March 24.
Please E-mail me ASAP if you and your daughter would like to attend the ballet.
Please bring payment with your child to Thursday's field trip.
If anyone has any questions, please e-mail me at spetroni@rcn.com

3) Individual Girl Scout Cookie Money, if it has not been turned in, is due this week. Thursday's Field Trip is a good day to turn it in.
Remember one check made out to GSEM Troop #72082.
If anyone has any questions, please e-mail Cookie Mom Shawn at shawn@granoff.net

4) Finally, the girls worked on the Penny Power Try-It today.
We hope to take the Troop on a field trip to a local Framingham bank this Spring. As soon as we have more details, we'll send out info to all of you.
