Investiture

We had a lovely Investiture. All the girls worked so hard to make it to this point.We started with a candelight enterence ( battery tea lights) They were so proud!
Mrs. Kwl explained the petal they earned. While Mrs. K. explained the badges. Each girl walked through a decorated arch to receive their official Daisy pin. 22 girls make up the New Daisy Troop 41184~

1ST GRADE DAISIES WHO ARE BRIDGING ONLY

 

I have only received permission for 3 girls to bridge.

If you have not done so please get that in ASAP.

Please respond to this email with a  YES WE ARE BRIDGING in the subject line so I can give Phyllis a heads up about how many girls to expect.  They are doing a Science experiment badge which are girls will earn as well. (part of the requirement to bridge)

 

Once I know how many girls are participating I can plan activities accordingly to make sure that our girls get the most out of this experience.  Please remember to also include a $8 to troop 41184 for expenses. If you are unable to pay the fee, please just submit the form.  We don’t want any girls to miss out on this experience.

 

I am really looking forward to participating in this process with our girls. Hope they all can participate.

Becoming a Brownie School year 2009-2010 Current 1 st Grade girls only. Kindergarten girls will remain a daisy 1 more year. I know you are saying…. “ What is she thinking we aren’ t even through with Daisies ” Well like all things in Scouting, we must plan ahead. Those girls who feel they would like to go further into Brownies next year may participate in a special Bridge badge. It actually is quite fun for the girls….. Here at Ames we will

 Attend a Brownie meeting and complete an activity with them

  Ask a brownie scout some of the things she does as a Brownie

 Complete a Brownie Try it ( Brownie Badge)

 “ Bridge ” our Daisies into Brownies at a very special ceremony during our Year end awards.

 Can your daughter be a Brownie without Bridging? Absolutely, we do not want to turn away any girls but only those girls who complete the Bridging program will earn the badge and participate in the “ Bridging ” portion of the ceremony. Once we know how many girls are participating, we will coordinate with the Ames current Brownie Troop and we will set up a schedule of events for the girls. Those Daisies who become Brownies next year will be part of a second troop that we will form. Please print out The attached form, fill in and send along with $8 to Joan Kanatas for participation/supplies (Checks may be made payable to Troop #41184) - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - I _______________________________give my daughter______________________________ permission to participate in the Bridging to Brownies Activities. ______________________________Parents signature

March 6th: Next meeting

Dear Parents,

A quick reminder that this Friday March 6 is our Daisy meeting and because of Spring Break ( I know can you believe it) Our next meeting is next week, March 13th.

 

Girls should be in Daisy uniform for the remainder of the meetings:

White shirt/, Daisy Tunic  (any bottoms may be worn.) 

Tan pants complete a formal daisy attire and we only require them for the Daisy ceremony’s or fieldtrips*.  ( *Coming in April)

 

Any scrapbooking parents? Can you send your Daisy with one or two sheets of scrapbooking paper (preferable different patterns) on Friday in their backpack?  We are doing a special project that will continue to the march 13th meeting. 

On a side note: Any parents willing to donate some time to the next two meetings, please contact Wendy

 

 

So far I have only 2 Dads for the campout.  Due to the facility being at Full capacity, we have 2 options , Tent and for those less adventurous we will find a near by motel. Dads will retire at lights out roughly 9-9:30?  and will return by 7:30 a.m.

 

I will let you know which motel we have found by the end of the month. We will get 1 room per 2 dads.

Yours in Scouting,
