Early Bird Registration for 2015-2016 Ends Jun 30

EarlyBirdPatch20152016asalaamu Alaikum

Alhamdullilah, PGMA Girl Scouts has been in existence for three years. In those 3 years, we have seen our troop grow and welcome new girls and families each year. This fall our Council is changing how troops are run and so will we follow suit. In addition, due to a lack of committed troop leaders and low parental involvement / volunteers, Troop 3480 will be implementing the following changes this fall:

  • We will not accept new Daisies and will phase out the Daisy program.
  • We will only accept Seniors and Ambassadors.
  • Parents who miss Early Bird Registration will not have an opportunity to join Troop 3480 in the fall.

Sis. Kesha will be available to help with Early Bird registration until Friday, June 5, the last troop meeting of 2014-2015. Parents who have an account on the GSCNC Registration site have until June 30 to complete Early Bird registration. Adults who want to assist with trips, meetings or chaperoning in the fall need to be registered volunteers and must register by the end of June, as well. Note: In the fall, Council will start background checks and credit checks for adult volunteers.

Download Girl and Adult Registration forms. All registration questions can be directed to Sis. Kesha at the troop meetings.

InshaAllah, we will see you all in the fall.

Reminder: Sojourning to Savannah Parent Meeting, May 15

jglBirthplacePatchAsalaamu Alaikum,

Join Sis. Kesha on Friday, May 15, 6 – 7PM, as she gives an overview of the 2017 trip to Savannah. This trip is for girls who will be Cadettes, Juniors and Brownies in 2017 inshaAllah (which includes girls who are currently first-year Cadettes, Juniors, Brownies and second-year Daisies).

At this meeting girls and parents will learn some Girl Scout history and review the Parent and Girl Scout contract, dates for deposits, and guidelines for participation. Remember that the first requirement for participation is to sell Girl Scout cookies with the troop for at least three Cookie Seasons. I can’t wait to share what we have in store for our girls.

Ma salaama

Sis. Kesha
