Original Post:

Today we will be honoring the birthday of the founder of Girl Scouts: Juliette Gordon Low. 

You can still attend this event if you did not register. Prior arrangements must have been made for Chili Cook Off participation (rules are on your forms), but you can pay at the door for entrance into the event. The price will then be $5 per person. Everything inside the event is supposed to be free and families are welcome. If you have any questions, call Donna Carlin at 512-461-0830.

If you have an extra folding table or outdoor extension cords for sharing, please label them with your name and phone number and bring them to set-up.
11-5-10 Update:
We had a Service Unit meeting last night. I will e-mail you the newest info on the JGL event. See you all Sunday!

Each member of Troop 1563 needs to bring at least 2 dozen undecorated cupcakes, any flavor. (If you are using a cake mix, one box should suffice.) All cupcakes need to be in paper liners. We're trying to stick with a Fall theme. You also need to bring one tub of frosting (or the equivalent of you're the home-made kind of person) and Fall themed edible decorations. Target currently has some in the Dollar Spot for 50cents. Your total cost should be less than $10. Please see the Bonus Item sign up list at the bottom of this post. We will set up our booth at 2pm. Girls and parents will take turns manning our booth, but are encouraged to wander and enjoy the various other booths. This is all planned by the children- and this is the first year with additional booths, so we'll see how many Troops participate. I've also heard that there will be a silent auction, benefiting Friends of Girl Scouts. Just wander around, meet other Scout families from our Service Unit, and have fun!

Girls should wear their uniforms (just don't get chili or frosting on it) and dress appropriately for the weather. It may get chilly during the movie. You could also bring your camera, sunscreen, bug spray, a picnic blanket (for the movie) and camp chairs for hanging out.
