PGMA Girl Scouts

The next regularly scheduled troop meeting will be this Friday, May 22, 6 – 7:30PM, inshaAllah. Please note that the final troop meeting of 2014-2015 will be June 5.

BROWNIES

• Brownies will begin working on their Fair Play badge in which girls will learn to work together to have the most fun possible. They will play games while learning the importance of following rules and being part of a team. Attendance at the Troop Field Day on May 31 is very important, as the field day experience is one of the steps to earn the Fair Play badge.

JUNIORS

• Juniors working on the final steps of the Simple Meals badge, planning the menu for a special occasion and discussing how to make healthier substitutes in desserts. Each girl should bring in the recipe of one of her favorite desserts.
• Juniors will also decide on a Take Action Project for their Get Moving! Journey.
• Bridging Juniors who attend the Cadette presentation this Friday will complete the Looking Forward portion of their Bridging to Cadettes award.

CADETTES

• Parents and bridging Juniors (girls who are currently Juniors in the 5th grade) should join the Cadettes as they discuss their experiences at the Stabler Apothecary Museum and show their Public Service Announcement from their MEdia Journey.

SENIORS

• After the Cadettes’ presentation, the Seniors will be completing their GIRLtopia Journey with a program for the Cadettes titled “Who Am I?” which will end at 8PM.
