Cadette Corner: Teen Awards, Proposals, Rules of Engagement & Reminders

Cadettes

Asalaamu alaikum Ladies,

Welcome new and old girls to the Cadette troop. This year your troop leaders will be providing you with the tools you will need to create successful programming through your Take Action project, LiA award, and/or Silver Award. See the descriptions of the Teen Leadership Awards.

Thank you to all those who did the assignment that was due 10/12/2016 at 12AM. You all will receive something for following through on those directions. I have a special prize for the girls who sent the first email. If you missed the deadline or the assignment completely please do email me the requested information.

Here’s what to look forward to at our next troop meeting inshaAllah:

  • Sis. Kieta will do a presentation on how to create an effective proposal, so come prepared to take notes and ask questions. Bring your sit-upons, too. If you don’t have one, bring a reusable bag that’s big enough to sit on and you can create one in the meeting.
  • Be ready to contribute to the Cadette Rules of Engagement. These are the rules with which you all will govern yourself as Cadettes.
  • Reminders:
    • The last day to pay for the Winter Challenge Core Camp in February is the next troop meeting, Oct. 23. This trip includes bridging Cadettes. Possibly canceled check Friday for update.
    • Cadettes can register for the Program Aide workshop on Nov. 7. Please search your Cadette Guides for info about this pin and how to achieve it.

Thank you,

Cadette Troop Advisors

Brownie & Junior Cookie College, Dec 6

THIS EVENT IS FULL.

cookieCollegeTransparentIs your girl an entrepreneur? Does she want to learn how to become one? Participation in Cookie College positions girls for success in the business world. Girls strengthen the five skills they learn through the Girl Scout Cookie Program: goal setting, decision making, money management, people skills, and business ethics. Girls will rotate through classes to learn about these valuable life skills and begin to plan for their own cookie business. Cookie Sales also helps girls and their troop raise money for programming. Does your daughter want to attend Girl Scout camp? She can earn her way there by selling cookies with her troop and attending Cookie College could boost her sales.

This is a council event and it will fills up quickly so register ASAP. This is a pre-paid event so there will be no refunds. Registered adults are free. Cookie college is for girls who have never attended Cookie College. Participation patch included.
