Back to Troop Parent Meeting, Aug 13

backToTroopParentMeeting08132016

It’s time to get back to troop! Alhamdullilah, PGMA’s multi-level Girl Scout troop is embarking on its 5th year of Girl Scouting. We are hosting an interest and registration meeting for new girl scouts and new troop leaders August 13, 11 AM at PGMA.

Parents of PGMA Girl Scouts from 2015-16 who have not re-registered for the upcoming year, must do so before August 13 or risk losing their spot. Renew your girl’s registration here: https://gsmembers.force.com/members/login. As a last resort or if you are having problems, come to the Back to Troop Parent Meeting on August 13 inshaAllah.

We look forward to a fun and engaging year with all of our girls!

Cadette Corner: My Faith, My Promise Event and Badge Update

Cadettes

Asalaamu Alaikum Ladies,

INTERFAITH OUTREACH PREPARATION
This Friday is the last day to present for the Meet A Muslimah Girl Scout Muslimah Interfaith Outreach event. If parts are not done then we might have to think about not participating. Cadettes have had since February to prepare and the event is in May. Here are the part distributions:

Welcome: Kalilah K. / Ruwaidah S. (They were the only girls who were present for the competition at the last troop meeting.)

Shahadah: Rayanah W. has one presentation. (This is group work. Other groups might have to help with this one.)

Salah: Yousra A. / Sanaa L.

Sawm: Ikram A. / Sumayah Y.

Zakat: Nasrin A. / Dahlia A.

Hajj: Siham N. / Zainab A. / Amirah M.

You are all to present for Sis Kori. Presentations must have leader approval. Friday we will also decide if this group will be participating in the program at all based on what is presented. We want to have a stellar performance so girls are going to have to give 110%.

BADGE RECAP
Here is a list of badges Cadettes worked on this year:

  • Night Owl: Done in meeting
  • Babysitter: Girls had to take the Girl Scout babysitting class or other outside training. Bring in the receipt.
  • Public Speaker: done in meeting
  • New Cuisines: Girls chose to do this on their own or in small groups, but they also had to present.
  • Entrepreneur : Did not finish; might finish in May
  • Financial Literacy badge: Done at Chesapeake Children’s Museum
  • aMaze Journey: None of the Cadettes who completed the book work turned in a proposal for a Take Action project.

LOOKING FORWARD
The Cadette troop will need lots of parent participation next year. We’ll need a Money Manager, Cookie Mom, fall product sales person, Cook-out Camp certified adult, as well as those trained in archery, canoeing and first aid. If these positions are not filled the Cadette troop will possibly be regulated to a couple of meetings at most.

Ma Salaama

2015-2016 Investiture & Rededication Ceremony

Asalaamu Alaikum

insigniaTabs

The Troop 3480 Investiture and Rededication ceremony will be Friday, December 18, 2015 inshaAllah.

Investiture welcomes new members, girls or adults, into the Girl Scout family for the first time where girls receive their Girl Scout pin officially making them a Girl Scout. The Rededication is an opportunity for girls and adults to renew their commitment to the Girl Scout Promise and Law, including Girl Scouts who have recently transferred to Troop 3480 from other troops.

Each level’s program will take place in their individual room. Times of each level’s ceremony will be posted at sign-in. Girls should be on time and in full uniform. We kindly request that parents bring a dish for this special occasion.
