HelloTroop!

I hope that everyone has had a wonderful Summer! I have missed seeing all your smiling faces!  I had a very busy summer and I am sorry to say that effected our Summer Activities.  I want you to have some information of our troop changes and be aware that we need to start planning our Aquarium trip for one of these upcoming weekends. This will be our Last activity for the 2013-2014 Junior Troop.  It will need to be on a Saturday in September. I would love some feedback on what would be best for your girl. We will make it a day trip down to the aquarium and back.

Our girls who are continuing on this Girl Scout Journey to Cadette. We are sad to see you fly but so excited for your new adventures.  The Cadette Troop holds it's meetings at the Immaculate Conception Church on the 1st, 3rd and 5th Tuesdays of each month from 7-8:30 pm.   Kris and Cynthia are the the fabulous leaders of the Cadette Troop. Their contact information is:
Kris Sherwin                       307-297-1699               krissherwin@live.com
Cynthia Welch                   307-870-6050                cynthiawelch04@msn.com

The Cadette Troops first meeting will be held on September 16th. I am sure Kris and Cynthia will be contacting each girl with more information. 

All our Girls are Registered for this 2014-2015 Girl Scout Year. We took care of that with troop funds. 

Tanya and I will be joined by Jill Schmidt as our fearless Leader! With three of us this year we are looking forward to a fun and more organized year right from the start.

Our first meeting for our Junior Troop is going to be on Tuesday September 23rd. Our Meeting time is going to be changing a bit. We will be meeting from 4pm to 6pm basically every other Tuesday, which works out usually being two Tuesdays a month.  We are asking a parent to join us for this meeting. We would love to sit and talk to you about what we are planning for the year, your feedback on how we can make this a better year for your girl and just so we are all on the same page.   

Looking forward to seeing you all very soon!

Sad News

Hello all,  with a sad heart I need to cancel our Aquarium trip this upcoming week. I had unforseen car issues and do not have a dependable vehicle to take the girls in this week. We will reschedule for a weekend after school starts.  Thank you for your understanding in this matter.

We will be contacting every as our new Girl Scout year gets underway after school srarts.  We will be holding a parent meeting before our actual year starts so that we are all on the same page this year.

FYI a little heads up information. Tanya and I will be joining with Jill to make up our Junior Troop Leaders while our Cadettes will Be moving up with Cynthia and Kris. Our Junior troop will still be meeting on Tuesdays.  

For the girls who did not make it to our end of year BBQ. I have your cookie incentives and will be bringing them by to you this week when I can. Along with your badges. I was hoping to give them at our summer get togethers.  Good intentions but unforeseen events changed our summer.   Looking forward to seeing you all soon. Hope you have all had an amazing Summer!

Summer Fun!

HAPPY SUMMER Girl Scout Families! We hope it is going well for everyone!  July has been one crazy thing after another so Tanya I decided to not have an event in July.  Everyone was in too many different directions.   We are still planning on our Aquarium trip for August.
We have decided on August 12th the Tuesday before School starts to have our day trip. We will leave in the morning for the Aquarium in Draper, UT and be home that same evening.  It will be a busy but wonderful day.  Please save the date and keep it open so that all our girls can join us.  More detailed information to come as the event gets closer.  Thank you all for your support, we love ya!
