Animals
Art  to Wear
Building Art
Dancercize
Movers

There are many more choices and if your daughter would like to work on a different Try-It please have her speak with one of us and we will get it scanned in and added to the page.

Updates

A big Thanks to Amy Kane for her help at the February 8th meeting.......parents are always welcome!  As Amy, Tammy and Chris will tell you....be prepared to jump right in, we will always have something for you to do!  Thanks again!!!!

A couple of parents were asking today about where to put the "science in action" badge on their daughter's sash or vest.  I have included a visual from the Girl Scout website on the "Helpful Resources" at the top of the page on this blog.  Click on the tab and scroll down to the drawing.  Typically, you would put the "try-it" badges on the front of the vest or sash.  The back is usually for the fun stuff like the badges from selling cookies or going to girl scout camp, etc.

Please check the calendar and snack schedule.  We are looking for parent(s) to help out with snack for the meeting scheduled for March 22.  Please let Kristi or Liz know if you are interested/available.  Thanks a bunch!

Cookie sales have been going great.  Liz worked this past weekend on getting the orders ready to be handed in.  THANK YOU Liz!!!! 

Thanks again for your support and sharing your delightful daughters!!

P.S.  I will update photos soon.....promise!!!!

Science in Action

Whew!  We did it.  The girls turned in scientist for the brownie meeting today and after participating in four activities they earned their Science in Action badge!!!  Again, a VERY successful meeting.  Big Thank You to Tammy Kolberg for helping out in a huge way once again!  Chris Cairns for being oh so flexible and filling in when Olivia Wodek (Wren's big sister) got hit with the flu bug.   The girls were very excited about their activities and I promised that I would put the instructions to their activities on the blog so that they could show you at home.  The activities are relatively easy and the supplies....well you might just happen to have them in your house.  Check them out.  You will be inspired....as we continue to be by these bright, wonderful girls!

Meeting Tuesday, January 11

It's almost here, our first meeting of 2011!

We will be talking about community service.  How we can help, on any level....big or small, it ALL makes a difference.  We will be encouraging the girls and their families to find a way to "help out".  We will brainstorm ideas and then girls can discuss with their families.  At our next meeting, January 25, we will have the girls share their plans or efforts if they have already taken Action.  Taking Action is part of the Girl Scout Quest that they are following this year.

I have put the links on the sidebar for the two Meal Trains that Emma's Mom, Alisa, has graciously set up.  Please consider these for community service; planning a meal, preparing a meal, making a small card or paper flowers to add to the meal can make for a really great way to spend some time together and to give back.

See you Tuesday!!!!!!!

P.S.  we will also make necklaces with our charms on Tuesday....I know the girls will be super duper excited!!
