Notes:
What a fabulous turn-out! Wow! Way to support Girl Scouts! Thank you everyone. Sorry I was late...We won't know which service unit had the highest turn out until the Friends of Girl Scouts lady releases that info, but the girls that hosted the event tonight said they think Troop 1563 had the highest Troop turn-out. I'm so proud of you guys! Girl Scouts of Central Texas gets 20% of the profits from all 5 Pluckers GS Night Patio Sales. I'll let you know when I find out how much money was raised. Our troop doesn't get a check or anything, but that money goes towards keeping costs low for Council sponsored events (like the over-nighter at the Dell Diamond.) The money also helps out with scholarships and financial aid and such.
Some of us sampled Fried Caramel Delights- yum! (vanilla ice cream with chunks of caramel delights, sprinkled with toasted coconut...)
We had our 2nd Court of Awards. Great job, girls! Keep up the good work. Whenever you complete four activities on a Badge Worksheet, fill out the bottom section and turn it in so that you can get the patch at our next ceremony. Some of you owe worksheets for badges you received tonight- get those to me on Monday, please. The "Recognitions" page has been updated.
Additional Notes:
We are starting work on our Careers Try It, pg. 22. Atalli's dad works downtown, across from Town Lake. He is going to ask his boss if we can set up our Lemonade Stand there (Sunday, May 2.) If not, we will do a stand closer to home. Everyone needs to go to the Lemonade Day website to register- and afterward, to a RunTex location to pick up your free supply back-pack. I've not picked up Amri's yet, but it's supposed to have everything we need. We will need to do some advertising (tell your friends and family.) We will discuss it further at Monday's meeting. When you register, it asks which contest you want to enter. We picked "best stand."
Original Post:
Come on out, eat dinner as a troop- and with oodles of other Scouts- and raise money for Friends of Girl Scouts. The Service Unit with the best turn out gets some sort of a prize. I'm not positive, but I believe kids always eat free at Pluckers. In any case, this event will not be paid for by the Troop.
Please let me know if you are coming so that we can try to all sit together. Our April Court of Awards will be held while we are waiting for our table. If your daughter has any completed Badge Worksheets, I MUST receive them before Thursday in order to get the badge. Anyone not in attendance will receive their patches at our next meeting. If your daughter needs to carpool, please let us know in advance.
Girls should wear their vests.We will be meeting at the South Lamar location at 6:30. (Take 71 to Lamar, turn right.) If you can get there a little early, that would be great. I have no idea what sort of wait there might be.
Volunteer Recognition is at 7pm. Pluckers will be offering a special dessert: Fried Caramel Delights- yum!
Tell all your friends and family to eat at Pluckers that night- they can go anytime between 5-8pm. The hostess or the waiter will ask for our Service Unit name- be sure to say Mustang Valle.
