Brownies Finish Their Time Capsules for All in the Family Try-It
Today, the Brownies finished their Time Capsule project, which they started in December. The Time Capsule was the last of the four requirements the girls needed to complete to earn the All in the Family Try-It..
.
Also during today's meeting, after Tovah read the Girl Scout Promise and Bella read the Girl Scout Law, we talked about cookie sales.
If every girl in the Troop sells 12 boxes of cookies, the Troop will earn a Troop scrapbook.
Friday, Jan. 16 is the last day for individual cookie sales.
We also talked to the girls about our plans to hold one or two cookie booth sales either this or next month. The money earned will help defray the cost of the Museum of Science event in June and help the girls earn additional prizes/incentives for cookie sales.
Reminder: Parents: all cookie order forms are due to tri-leader Shawn no later than Sunday, Jan. 18. Any questions please call or e-mail her.
At the end of the meeting, after clean-up, the girls participated in the Friendship Circle. That Brownie Squeeze and Girl Scout Out activity is one of the Troop's favorites.
