May check in and announcements

Hi Everyone,

I hope everyone is doing well and finding ways to stay busy and thrive during this time of quarantine.  Hopefully every day brings us more opportunities to grow closer to each other and expand our horizons one way or another.

It saddens me to know that as we come near to the end of our regular scout season, we will not be able to celebrate our milestones and bridging in our usual fashion.  It’s one of the things I normally look forward to the most in my personal scouting experience and I’m sure you will miss it as well.

For any girl wanting to earn badges from home or participate in one of the many virtual gatherings the girl Scouts are hosting they can click on the link below and they will be directed to the page with all the information available.

Girl Scouts From Home

In the next few weeks I will be still be creating a year end video to share with you.  It will be highlights from the meetings we were able to participate in this year and I know you will all enjoy watching it as much as I’ve enjoyed creating it.

Next year’s registration fees to be paid by troop

I wanted to touch base about next year’s registration which is currently going on.  I hope that this time away from each other has not discouraged the girls from wanting to continue in their Girl Scout journey.  I would love for as many girls as possible to return next year and would like to make things a little easier for that to happen.

Since we were not able to do all the activities that I had planned for the year our troop account has a surplus of funds that I want to use in a positive way.  I would like to pay the registration fee for any of the girls that would like to renew their membership for next year.  Again this would come out of our troop  bank account form the funds the girls worked hard to earn  so please don’t feel bad or awkward in accepting it.  This is also to say thank you for the hard work and effort that the girls put forth this year.  If anyone has already paid the registration fee just let me know and I will be happy to reimburse it for you.

Please let me know by June 20^th if your girls plan to continue with Girl Scouts next year so I can get them registered.

Cookie prizes and badges earned

We should be getting our cookie rewards sometime in the middle of June.  Once those come in I will be either mailing them out or making arrangements to drop them off to you along with the badges the girls have earned this year.
