Planning for 2013-2014

Hello all!

Your fearless leaders have been hard at work planning for the coming year for our brownies!

Please be sure to check the troop calendar for our updated schedule:

• Within the next few weeks you will receive a packet of paperwork.  It will include campout information and permission slip, medical forms, a child release permit, general permission slip, and a girl needs assessment.  Once you get it please be sure to return it promptly so we can get organized.
• We have added a few summer meetings so the girls can prepare for the upcoming campout and do some general "troopkeeping" such as creating a banner and choosing a troop crest.  
• There are a couple of special events on the calendar for September in addition to the campout, including a Girl Scout Pride workshop and the celebration of Long Valley's 275th anniversary!  If you plan to have your girl attend the workshop on 9/19, please let Kelly know ASAP so we can register.
• Because we will be meeting later on Friday evenings (5:30 - 7:00 pm), we will not be able to use Cucinella as a meeting location.  We will therefore be using members' homes for our meetings.  Please let Kelly know if you are willing to offer your home!
• We have put some events on the calendar that are part of our badge work but are outside of our normal meeting schedule.  As our planning continues, we will add more special events.  Some things that are on the docket but not yet locked in on the calendar include a day of horse care at a local stable and attending a dance performance.
• We have also put a Troop 5030 Moms' Night Out on the calendar so we can have a chance to get together and chat!
