Troop Meeting Reminder, Jan 16

troopMeetingFriday

The next regularly scheduled troop meeting will be this Friday, January 16, 6 – 7:30PM, inshaAllah.

Brownies are celebrating the completion of their WOW Journey with a rainbow tea party. Bring $5.
Brownie’s will be selling blanket throws as a part of their WOW Journey Action Project. This is a really special fundraiser because the Brownies made the blanket throws themselves. After learning about the importance of water, the girls decided that they would like to raise money to make a charitable donation for people who have minimal access to water. The proceeds from the fundraiser will be given to the Good Gift Foundation to help build wells in a third world country. HURRY! The blankets are going fast. They are only $12 each. With only six blankets left, they will be sold on a first-come first-served basis.

This one of a kind performance, custom designed for the Spy Museum, is guaranteed to fascinate children and adults alike.
