Hello, Girl Scout Brownie Families!!

Thank you so much for sharing your daughters with Juliana (bug mom) and me (Elizabeth, no nickname thus far).

Welcome to our new members! We love our troop family and are looking forward to watching it grow and change.

We have so many fun activities and girl led events this year! We wanted to let you know what the girls are up to, in case you ask what they did today in scouts and all you get as a response is “stuff.”

There are multiple campouts, and cookie season is fast approaching! Make sure you’re receiving Remind notifications that will tell you packing and carpool lists, as well as linking to important forms and information. CAMPOUTS AND COOKIE SALES ARE NOT REQUIRED TO BE IN THE TROOP! We take attendance to figure out which girls have received which badge by participating in activities, but girl scouts isn’t school.

**Additionally, having the topics and even knowing your girl scout is leading a meeting does not mean you have to do anything. We want you to be in the loop, but there are zero obligations by giving you this information. They will do the planning for their session in meetings with us.

Campouts (Badges will be earned, fun will be had, s’mores will be s’mored and eaten)::

11/1-11/3 – FALL CAMPOUT for the whole service unit! Badges will be earned, fun will be had, s’mores will be s’mored and eaten.
