Updates

Our meeting went great this week. Thank you to Claire for the yummy snack! The girls made passports and have started to think about what their story will be about. I cannot wait to see all the published books.
We talked about what SWAPS they want to make, what to do with the money from gift wrapping and more. These girls are so great!
Some updates:
Please RSVP for the paper wrapping event on Dec. 9th at Anthem Outlets. There are still spots open. If you are donating wrapping paper, tape, ribbons, bows, etc. please have them to me or Tisha by December 8th. We will need a lot of supplies if we are going to make any tips ;) Thank you to all that have already volunteered and signed up!
World Thinking Day Feb. 9th. It is at Anthem Park and is $5 per girl. I need to know how many are going and pay by Dec. 12th.

Some things to note:
The He/She dance will be on Feb 8th. It is $5/girl and a Masquerade Theme. Should be fun! Evite will be coming soon!
Donations: Troop 2692 is trying to earn an award and they're collecting new DVDs for Phoenix Children's Hospital. The kids are 0-Teenagers so even PG13 is acceptable. Let me know if you want to donate any movies so I can take them to the leader meeting Dec. 12th.
Next meetings are: 12-5 and 12-12
 
Lots of fun coming up!

Hello!

It has been awhile! Our last meeting went great! Thank you to Erin and her mom for a delicious, healthy snack. Thank you to Madison C. and her family for the extra bonus food as well! The girls were happy since they all love to eat! haha
The girls can fill out page 39 and 40 in their books if they want. We talked about folklores and their own style. We are getting close to writing those books! They had model magic to create anything they want out of. It will air dry if left to sit out 24 hours.
Next meeting we will be making a passport to use at World Thinking Day. The neighborhood will be hosting one and we will do a smaller scale one at a meeting in February.
If you would like to have your girl attend, please let me know. It is $5 per girl.

Jan. 12th the neighborhood is having a "Cookie Kick-Off Pajama Party". More details soon!
Alyssa is our cookie mom again...thank you!! :)

Please sign up for a time to wrap at the outlets if you want to participate in that. We will be using the donations to buy toys for kids in need.

Go Troop 1460!!

Letters to our Troops

Today the girls had a very busy day! Thank you to Elliot and her mom for snack!! They read from their books, answered questions, got a journal to bring to each meeting, and last wrote letters to our troops so Michael's craft store can send them off before Christmas. :) They also got their Cookies for Kids Cancer patches. Thank you Shana for planning that event and getting the patches for the girls!

Remember: If you would like to plan an event, we have some months open. You will need to find the contact info, price, date. Check the date with Tisha or myself to make sure it is not a conflict for one of us to be there and after that, just send the evite. Super easy! If we cannot be there, the event would just be an unofficial visit.  Let me know if you have any questions. :)

We have the zoo trip coming up in November. Please RSVP to the evite.

The girls will be writing a book soon....real authors in our troop because we are that awesome! haha

Go troop 1460!

Meeting #3

Today was another great meeting! The girls talked about feelings and had lots to say. We had a butterfly snack bag (forgot to take a photo!) with carrots and hummus as well...thank you Gally for snack!. * Quick reminder about snack: We are a nut free troop. This means we cannot have any snacks brought in with nuts in it. The reason is if the girls that can have nuts eat them with their hands and then touch shared supplies with someone who cannot have them, they are passing the allergen on to their fellow scout who could get very sick. Thank you so much for understanding :)

Today we read pages 6-17 in our books. The girls can fill out page 17. It lists things they are good at and things their friends are good at as well. We focused on our talents and how others can offer help with things we may struggle at.

We made cute room signs today and book marks as well.

Last, each girl should have gotten 3 Pirate magnets they made last time. Tisha had to hot glue them and bring them back. Thank you Ms. Tisha for gluing all of them!

Next time we will be working in our books again, so please have the girls bring them. I keep Jadyn's vest and book in her backpack they made and it stays in her school backpack so we do not forget it.

Please RSVP for the PJ and Egg event on October 12th. This should be another great time to all see each other and help AZ Children's Association.

Last, please RSVP to the Prescott zoo evite for November. I am looking forward to seeing that zoo!

Field trips:
We have Dec., January, March (not during Spring Break), and April open for anyone who would like to plan an adventure out.


Thank you!!

Meeting #2

 
Our meeting went great! Thank you Skye for the fruit snacks and cute hair bows! :)
We made Cookies for Kids Cancer t-shirts to wear if you are coming to the Bake Sale Event on September 29th. They made signs as well...such creative girls! Last, they made Norterra Canyon magnets to sell to help fundraise for the PTSA. The coaches want to have a special girl scout night for one of the basketball games. Details soon...should be so fun! UPDATE: The coaches ended up getting a Bose system donated to them last week, so we still have the money we collected and part of it will go to getting Mrs. Moore (art teacher) a new pencil sharpener. The rest we will take a vote with the girls and see what they want to do. I know the school needs new balls, etc. for the playground as well. THANK YOU to everyone who wanted to help get the coaches their system. They were thankful for our efforts, but we are glad another parent was able to get them the system they wanted.

Here are some photos of our amazing troop...these girls are the best!
