Reminders of Upcoming events
- October meeting will be held at 6pm for Journey training – I will have some announcements and reminders but as for a regular meeting nothing important will take place. We will not meet as a service team (this is actually being held at Tim Hortons on Oct 13th at 7pm.) We can meet in the other room, any leaders that already had journey training and we can discuss ideas for field trips, songs, crafts etc…
- Veterans Day Cards are due at this meeting for any troop that has decided to work on them as a service project.
- T- shirt and Name tag orders are also due at this meeting (let me know as soon as possible if you need a t-shirt order form).
On October 29th they will have the meeting for Washington DC the planning meeting
The meeting is Saturday, October 29 from 12:30-2:30. Location will most likely be all of the service centers. I will confirm once the registration deadline has passed. I will send all registered leaders an email. Girls will be submitting and voting on T-shirt designs. We will be discussing logistics, and going over the 2 itinerary choices. You have to register for the meeting. You can register in ebiz or if you want to send me your troop#, service unit, phone number, how many girls and adults, you can just register with me. Easier to change your numbers if you have to! There is no cost for the meeting, and you are not obligated to the trip by coming to the meeting. The first payment is supposed to be due 11/1, but in the Program Guide it got printed as 11/11, so I will have to accept money that late. There are many questions people are asking that I cannot answer until I have the registrations, so once that deadline has come, I will be printing out all the registrations and working on some of the logistics such as how many buses at which service centers, asking for room rosters and itinerary choices, which will be part of the decision as to which hotel people will be at (we have reservations at 7, so at this point I can’t tell you what hotels). Let me know if you have specific questions I have not answered!
Cookies – This was sent from Sue about Cookies
Just a few reminders as our cookie sale begins tomorrow morning (October 1st). Please make sure all girls are registered and have filled out the cookie permission slip. Also you as cookie managers must be registered as well.
If anyone has any “leftover” cookies from last year, I want to bring to your attention that we absolutely must NOT SELL those cookies during the sale. It will cause many unnecessary problems if we have to explain 2 different bakeries and 2 different kinds of cookies. I can assure you that the cookies this year are hot out of the ovens for our delivery.
I wanted to clear up some questions from training. The Rock the Falls trip will be open to all scouts and their families regardless if you earn the tickets through the cookie sale.
To access the site to print out additional order forms and the keep-goaling order forms go to the site below and click on the goal getter tab.
If you wish to add any more users to your cookie account on SNAP. Go to add a user when you are pulling up your account. The person that I have entered first will only receive the emails from me. So please forward if you need to.
At this point, you should enter in the girls first and last name in SNAP so you are all set for inputting their cookie orders.
I will do my best to remind you of upcoming deadlines etc. to try and help us all.
NEW GIRL GUIDES
Wanted to let everyone know the new books are now in and available at the girl scout shop. The inserts for the journey books are not in tho. As a unit, we have purchased one new book per grade level, with inserts to come at a later time. I will bring these to the unit meeting on the 18th if you would like to look them over and have not purchased them yet. We will set up a borrowing system just like with the other materials in the library.
Again I am sorry this is late, I wanted to wait for some important details before I sent this out and I also want to remind everyone that the next meeting is OCTOBER 18th @ 6pm for journey training at the Senior Center. The service team will meet at Tim Hortons on the 13th of October at 7pm
Thanks
Faith
