Hey Troop Families! We have some big events starting with Cookies... The count down is on to our cookie season! One week from today we will be meeting at the GR High School for our Cookie Kick Off from 6pm-8pm Please plan on attending! Cookies will go on sale the next day (Feb 1st) and parental permission is needed for girls to participate.
Our next troop meeting we will continue on our Drawing and Cookie CEO patch. We have some seriously talented girls! Just a reminder about Dues we are asking for 2 dollars per meeting per girl which is adding up to 4 dollars each month. This will help us with supplies and other items needed for the troop. Thank you!
The following troop meeting will be held on Feb 18th. This is also an important day for Cookies. All Cookie orders are DUE to us that day. It conveniently coincides with our troop meeting which makes it a bit easier.
Tanya will not be able to attend Ice Skating tomorrow. So keep a look out for me to sign your girl in. If someone needs a ride, I do have two seat belts available to help out. Please let me know, I will need to plan accordingly. Thank you all!
Girl Scouts of Montana and Wyoming

Creative Girls!
We had the girls do some drawings last week starting on a news badge. You have some very creative girls! I will be holding onto their drawings for now until we have completed all activities. We talked about goal setting with Cookies. The girls wrote down a Personal Goal and we added that up to make our Troop Goal for Cookie sales. We will be posting the numbers on our board for the girls to see and continue to strive for that goal. The girls are very open to challenging themselves and selling as many cookies as possible. We then talked about what our troop activity will be if they reach their set goal. They are supposed to be brainstorming about this still. We talked about having a whole day together filled with many different activities. They tossed out some awesome ideas, but they all boiled down to one thing: Spending time together. We will officially decide together as a troop.
Our next meeting is on Tuesday January 21st, We will continue working on our drawing skills and the Cookie CEO patch.
We will be placing an order next week from the Girl Scout Store for patches. If you are in need of anything we are happy to add it on to One order. Please let Tanya or I know! We need the girls looking proper for cookie sales.
Our Official time for Cookie Kick off is 6-8pm at the Green River High School on Friday January 31st . We will be having different stations for the girls to learn about the incentives, rules and such for cookie sales. We will then be pulling the parents aside to have the official rule meeting and sign permission for girls to sell cookies. The girls cannot sell without your consent and we hope to take care of all the official things in one swift swoop. Cookies then go on sale the next day, February 1st. I will be posting helpful things on here or you can always go to the Girl Scout Web page for lots of great information. Or you can be friends with the Girl Scouts of Montana & Wyoming or GSMW South West WY-Region on Facebook. They are posting lots of helpful information.
Please do not hesitate to ask any questions, we are happy to help.
Also, Save the Date for March 1st the Daddy Daughter Date Night will be held that evening. More information and official invite to come.

January 2014 Update
Welcome back after the Holidays, we hope everyone had a wonderful break. We are looking forward to a new year together. I want to start by welcoming you all to the beginning of the 2014 Cookie Season! Our Cookie Sales information is starting to come in and we look forward to our Cookie Kick Off on January 31st at Green River High School. Not sure if we have a conformation of time yet. Will let you know as soon as we know for sure. ALL girls and a parent must attend this event. While the girls are working on booths and learning about the cookies we will be having a parent meeting getting you all the information that is needed. Cookie Sales then start the next day on February 1st.
We are asking for help if anyone is interested in helping with cookies. We will need a central location for our troop picking up cookies. If someone has space for our initial troop cookies we would be forever grateful. Tanya and I have limited space for so many boxes of cookies. Please let Tanya or I know if you would be willing to help.
We have two troop meeting this month. January 7th and January 21st same time and location. Please remember that our troop meetings are an hour and a half. We will finished up by 7pm and please come in the building and pick up your girls. We just need to know they are going home with a guardian and we are not just sending them out in the dark. We are starting Two new badges and hope to have them finished up about the time cookies finish. One is the Cookie CEO badge and the other is a bit more fun and creative!
We have a conformation on Ice Skating for January 25th from 12:45-3:00pm in Rock Springs. We can skate at 1pm but are asking to show up early to start checking out skates. We will be providing hot chocolate for our troop. FYI the concessions will be open, so if girls would like to bring money from home and purchase food items, that is an option. We are looking forward to seeing everyone soon. Thanks for all you do!
