As salaamu alaikum,

The next regularly scheduled troop meeting will be tomorrow, Friday, Jan 4, 2019, 6 – 8PM, inshaAllah. Please be timely. Arrivals after 6:15PM are disruptive to troop meetings and strongly discouraged.

COOKIES

• Girl Scout Cookie Season has begun! The initial order phase ends January 12, 2019. Learn more about the Girl Scout Cookie Program here.
• The Brownie Cookie Mom will be available for parents to sign forms and pick up paperwork so their girls can participate in this year’s Girl Scout Cookie Program
• Parent volunteers are crucial to a successful troop Cookie Program. We need parents to volunteer to pick up the cookies (a one-time commitment during the first two weeks of February 2019) and chaperone cookie booths (aim to volunteer at least one time for one – two hours per cookie booth from February 15 – March 17, 2019). Step up and help our Girl Scouts achieve their goals!
