Troop Meeting Reminder, Jan 16

troopMeetingFriday

The next regularly scheduled troop meeting will be this Friday, January 16, 6 – 7:30PM, inshaAllah.

BROWNIES

  • Brownies are celebrating the completion of their WOW Journey with a rainbow tea party. Bring $5.
  • Brownie’s will be selling blanket throws as a part of their WOW Journey Action Project. This is a really special fundraiser because the Brownies made the blanket throws themselves. After learning about the importance of water, the girls decided that they would like to raise money to make a charitable donation for people who have minimal access to water. The proceeds from the fundraiser will be given to the Good Gift Foundation to help build wells in a third world country. HURRY! The blankets are going fast. They are only $12 each. With only six blankets left, they will be sold on a first-come first-served basis.

JUNIORS

  • Artist Zahra Yahya will be demonstrating art techniques. Girls who attended the Junior Drawing badge workshop should bring their work to share.
  • Bring $7 to purchase a GET MOVING! Journey book

CADETTES

  • Bring supplies to work on the peacemaker box or vision board project: shoe box or foam board, colored pencils, markers, magazines, scissors and glue.
