Trefoils: 3 boxes

Do-si-dos: 4 boxes

Tagalongs: 1 box

Savannah Smiles: 7 boxes

If you have more than one girl selling cookies, list each girl’s cookie orders separately. Cookie Goals are per girl, not per family.

Cookie Transport
Parents are needed to volunteer for cookie pick up for the Troop on February 10. The more parents we have to transport cookies the quicker it will be. Please see Sis. Zakiya at the Friday meeting for more info.

Cookie Incentives
Each girl should aim to sell a minimum of 75 boxes of cookies. These can be sold individually or through cookie booths. Selling at cookie booths is an easy way for your girl to increase her cookie sales totals. Selling 75 boxes of cookies will qualify your daughter for special prizes at the Cookie Party after the 2013-14 Cookie Season ends. Girls who do not sell 75 or more boxes will also be able to attend.

Asalaamu Alaikum

This Friday, January 3, 2014, will be our Troop’s Investiture and Rededication ceremony.

Investiture welcomes new members, girls or adults, into the Girl Scout family for the first time. Girls receive their Girl Scout, Girl Scout Brownie, or Girl Scout Daisy pin at this time. 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 levels ceremony will be posted at sign-in. We are asking parents to bring a dish for this special occasion.

Girls should be on time and in full uniform. Remember: the Uniform Stars program is an on-going effort.


Juniors
Special Instructions for Juniors: The Juniors have three special guests who have been invited! Juniors should wear their uniform vest, white headscarf, white shirt, and a skirt of any color. Otherwise girls can wear an overgarment of any color over which they can fit their uniform vest. No pants or tennis shoes, please. Juniors should also remember to bring a dish that they prepared themselves. Here is our list of foods so far. If your name is not on the list, please bring a vegetable dish, drink, rice dish, or salad. Write a decorative label to sit in front of your dish.
