In October we celebrated Juliette Low's birthday
by making The Original Girl Scout Cookie Recipe
and learning Sign Language.
In November the troop held an Investiture/Rededication
Ceremony. The girls decided they wanted to try a
flag ceremony for the first time. They did a wonderful
job!
In December we visited a Senior home to spend time
with some patients there. The girls sang Christmas
carols and gave patients presents and cards. We
enjoyed our time with them!
In January cookie sales started. The girls
decided on there goals for this year. Girl
Scout Kennywood Day and 2 Camping trips are on the
top of the list. We also held a
Court Of Awards Ceremony and the girls received the
patches they have earned thus far. The
girls MagNut money paid for a She/Me Tea Party this
month where the girls dressed up, learned etiquette
and the history of tea in order to earn the Manners
Try-It. It was a wonderful time!
In February the girls exchanged valentines for
Valentines Day and made a craft. They colored
T-Shirts we ordered for the troop, and we also
participated in a community Thinking Day Event.
Our troop represented Germany. The girls did a
wonderful job at the event and we all had alot of
fun!
In March the girls practiced for the booth sale
and played games, Mrs. Roxanne was at Train the
Trainers Training for this meeting.
In April we had an Easter Egg hunt and decorated bags to collect the eggs in. The girls made bunnys to bring home for a decoration. We worked on our scrapbooks, I think the girls are having alot of fun with this! And we started to plan for our camping trips.
In May Mrs. Roxanne & Mrs. Pat went to the adult Spring Fling. We stayed in platform tents and ran two workshops the following day. The sharing session where leaders got to sit and share what there troops have done. The SWAPS workshop were we provided leaders with the supplies and examples to make swaps. We then traded them so they would have to take back to their troop. It was a great event!
Camp Permission slips were given as well as personal equipment list. We made Sit-Upons which will finish up the Girl Scout Ways Try-It for most of the girls. Autumn and Cassie have been planning the bridging ceremony for camp.
