The troop has finalized the plans for our camping trip. It will be May 16th -18th. The girls will be working on 6 badges and we will be reviewing the requirements and preparing for the trip the two meetings prior to the outing.
Don’t forget about your monthly dues.
Service Unit Recognition – Applications are available if you would like to nominate an adult leader for an award – Green Angel Patch, Outstanding Volunteer, and Outstanding Leader Award. Please see John if you would like to nominate someone.
Please reviewed the Badge Tracking Matrix major categories and the associated sub-categories required to be finish before each Scout can earn the particular badge. Parents can review and if they see where their Scout needs to complete something they may have missed, the parent can take appropriate action (i.e. conduct training or exercise themselves with necessary documentation provided to the troop leadership, ask the troop leaders if they can go back over what their scout missed and etc.) See Steve if you have any questions.
Girl Scout Camp training will be at Sandy Pines April 19th & 20th. Anyone wishing to attend please contact the council office and let John know as well. There is a $25 fee for the course. |
