This event has passed.

Attendance:

Amri
Atalli
Mikayla
Ariana
Emonee

Try It Activities Completed:
pg. 164 Sounds of Music #5 
pg. 164 Sounds of Music #7 (We learned the Brownie Smile Song.)

Notes: 
We were locked out today, so the meeting started late. We discussed our role in Friday's Bridging Ceremony (details on next post.) The girls voted on what they will say. Ariana volunteered to speak on behalf of our troop. Then we made a music mobile. For snack we had granola bars. Amri, Emonee, Atalli, and Ariana turned in completed Badge Sheets for Sounds of Music. The ticket order form for the Overnighter at the Dell Diamond was sent home. Look for it in the front of her Badge Book. Girls voted on 2 upcoming Field Trips/Community Service projects:

• Sunday June 6, 4-8ish pm: Night of the Bat (A link is available on our calendar- I'll make a post as we get closer to the event date.)
•  We have been trying to do a trash pick-up for a while now. We have a sheriff who will come out and talk to the girls. We decided we want to pick up litter at Lake Walter E. Long. I will be making arrangements soon, and posting once things are finalized.

 Upcoming Events: This Friday- May 21- we have a Ceremony to attend. See the Bridging Ceremony Post.

Original Post:

Well- I've been waiting for the leaders of the Bridging troops to get back with me with some details about Friday's Ceremony and they have not. All I know right now is that our troop is responsible for bringing:
-2 cases of bottled water
-60 individual snack bags of chips
If we divide that up its 5 girls bringing a box of a dozen chips and 2 girls each bringing one case of water and a bonus girl to bring either.

I was hoping we'd learn our song tonight but we'll come up with something else to do. We can learn the Brownie Smile Song tonight. I'll count it towards our Sounds Of Music Try It. We have a lot of events coming up so we can discuss those and maybe play a game.

Tonight we'll update Badge Books. Remember that these belong to the troop and not to you, so take good care of them! They need to come to EVERY meeting with you so you get credit for the things you have done.
If you have completed Badge Worksheets- turn them in! All completed worksheets must be received by Wednesday for you to get your patches this Friday at the Ceremony.

Upcoming Events:  
Fri 5/21 6-7:30pm Bridging Ceremony for local Girl Scouts. Whole Troop attendance is strongly encouraged. Girls should wear their vest and brown bottoms (shorts, skirt, pants, etc.) I suggest purchasing some shorts, as we will wear the same thing to the Dell Diamond in July.
At the Ceremony, girls in our troop will receive a membership star with a green disk to signify the completion of their first year as a Brownie.
Amri and Madison should both currently have one star with a blue disk for their previous year as a Daisy.
Stars are worn on the vest, under the troop numbers. By glancing at a Scout's vest, you can quickly determine how long she has been a Girl Scout. We will also hold our next Court of Awards at the Bridging Ceremony. Additionally, we will be handing out Cookie Prizes. I will make a post for the ceremony after tonight's meeting.

Sun 6/6 Night of the Bat (see calendar for details.)

Sun 7/11- Mon 7/12 Overnighter at the Dell Diamond. Info about this is now available  at the bottom of the Troop Calendar. Tonight you should receive your Dell Diamond Ticket Order Form.
