Fall Fundraiser Starts October 11th!
We know that this is a hard time of year for fundraisers. A lot is going on with school and other events. But, this is a good way to help us jump start our year. Also, if anyone is in need of financial support for Girl Scouts, they will be looking to see if you have participated in this event. There is an option for some cute photo books in this Fall Fundraiser. This is a new option; you purchase it upfront but have a year to make it. As a troop we will be making a book and then you will have an option later to buy our troops photo book when completed. This option gives our troop even more support. We are encouraging everyone to use the online option for ordering. It can be more efficient for processing and there are even more options for candy/nuts online.  So some key points: Orders Start October 11th and NO SOONER.  Sales End October 26th and are due to Jill on October 27th.  Money is due upfront for magazines and photo books. Money is collected for nuts/candy upon delivery. The nuts/candy should be here before Thanksgiving for delivery. All money is due to Troop by December 5th, 2014. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask!

We wanted to invite you to Trunk Or Treating with Green River this Saturday at 11am-1pm. Jill is going to this event and is happy to have the troop accompany her. Please RSVP to Jill by Friday if you would like to attend. She will then let you know information for meeting arrangements.

Update on Uniforms and Books. We ordered them the day after our last meeting. We have not had them arrive yet.  I did get an email that the white shirts may be taking more time than normal or arrive.  Hopefully they show up soon!  

We had a fun time making our aprons last meeting and are looking forward to using them when we make paper this next meeting. Please have your girl bring some scrap/garbage papers we will be reusing to make our paper. The more colorful the paper the better, please not newspapers for this activity. We will start talking about recycling/reusing materials and how it saves us energy. Which will then lead into our next outing of visiting the Green River Recycle Center. We have not been able to plan that exact date yet. We will keep you posted when they get back to us.  Thanks for all your Support!   

We hope you have a good evening at our Investiture and Rededication. Thank you for Attending!
