Sunday, April 29th

I have just learned that First Presbyterian would like to celebrate Girl Scouts on April 29th with Girl Scout Sunday. Each year the church designates this day and this year they are doing it around the Senior Girl Scouts receiving their Gold Award.

What this means is we all go to church together as a troop and are recognized during worship. We will sit together along with the Senior Scouts. It is a BIG day in their lives and it will also be a great way for our girls to see what is to come.

Please let us know if you will be able to make it:

Sunday, April 29th

11:00 am Worship

First Presbyterian Church

* The girls are REQUIRED to wear their vests at this function!

Next Meeting 4/24 - Important information

Hopefully everyone had a wonderful and relaxing spring break! It is hard to believe summer is just around the corner. Since we were off our schedule just a bit I want to send a little reminder about the upcoming meeting on April 24th.

Since I will be 3 weeks post surgery, Mrs. Mary will be leading the girls on the next portion of our Journey (I hope to at least be present for the meeting while staying seated ;) ). Our timing is actually perfect because Mrs. Mary would have been the lead in this next discussion anyway! We will be talking about ways to care for others through healthy living. If you know anything about Mrs. Mary this is right up her alley.

Each Journey has some form of way to address ways to live healthy and how to take care of yourself and others. It is a great way to teach the girls the importace of health through fun activities. Last meeting your girls came home with an 'Commitment Card' where they were to work on caring for their family in a health focused way. They need to come to the meeting with this card ready to discuss the activity. The home activity is a big part of getting the next badge in this Journey as is returning with the commitment card. If your daughter has not completed the exercise this weekend is perfect!

We will look forward to seeing everyone on the 24th!
