3/13 Meeting outline

From Hayley:

I think we can get through all this stuff so that the girls can earn their manners badges in one big swoop. I also know that Denise would like to finish up her mural. I think we will need some parent power to run the stations, maybe we can enlist the help of a Brownie mom and Daisy Mom...I also do not have the Daisy book, or story to read. So, it would be great if someone could bring in their Daisy book.

I think any girl can do any station, but they need to hit their stations to earn the badge.

Brownie stations (making friends badge):

1: Parent led discussion about friendship: How do you introduce yourself to a new friend, practice by introducing yourself to 3 others at the meeting. Sometimes friends disagree, discuss what to do when you and a friend argue.  What are nice things to say to a friend? Eg. "I love your new shoes, are they new?"

2: River Rocks: decorate a river rock to give to a friend at the meeting (swap).

3: Tea Party: practice your new skills.

Junior stations (social butterfly badge):

1: parent led discussion: table manners: placement of plate, silverware, etc.  What manners do you use at the dinner table?

2: Thank you Cards: write a thank you card to someone: a teacher, a parent, a counselor, etc…

3: Juniors will set up the tea party.

4: Tea Party: there will be conversation cards at the table. They will use these cards for polite conversations.   

Daisy stations (Respect Pedal):

1: parent led story: Gloria

Upcoming meeting reminder

Just a note to remind you that our adult planning meeting is Wednesday at 6 PM at Cork.

Please bring any money you have collected for cookies on Wednesday night, since we need to deposit it this week.

Please also let Katie know if you need more cookies, since we will be going to the cupboard this week.

This Saturday evening is our wine and cookie pairing at Cork, and our girl meeting is this Sunday at 3 PM at TBPS.

Come to the meeting with your calendars so we can determine:

- what, if any, cookie booths we want to add before the end of the season.

- when we want to go to Jay Peak waterpark with the girls

- A date for the tea party at the senior center

-when and whether we want to go sugaring, perhaps at Denise's

At the girl meeting this Sunday, we should:

-finish the mural (Denise)
-take the next steps in planning the tea party (Jill)
-review the cookie income and ask the girls to brainstorm some ideas for how to use it
-perhaps do the history walk that Hayley created for town meeting day

Cookie Update - Congrats, Ladies!

You did an amazing job this past weekend!  On Tuesday, River, Rowan & Lyra deposited $1220 into our troop bank account from all the cookies you sold over the weekend!

At Ben & Jerry's you braved the cold and sold almost 200 boxes of cookies!

And you used your charm and cash register to sell almost 135 boxes at Town Meeting Day!

This weekend, we have a date with Bridgeside Books from 9:30a-12:30p on Saturday and we're at Cabot Annex from 11:30-4:30 on Sunday.  Please sign up on VolunteerSpot so that we know what coverage we'll have.

Thanks so much for all the great collaborative work you've done!
