Notes:

We reviewed Fall Products today.
Then we learned some neat facts about Juliette Gordon Low and played a memory game.

I have not made copies of the Goal Sheet yet, but I will soon. I will give them to you when you turn in your registration paperwork and/or fall product permission slip. I need both of these forms by the 25th.

Soon we will be having our weekly meetings at the Austin's Colony Community Center. For those of you who do not live in Austin's Colony, when you are on 969 and reach the Texaco, go South on "Hunter's Bend." Go straight at the 4 way stop and continue to the end of the road. The community center will be directly in front of you. Pull in the dirt road and park to the left on the gravel. Please avoid parking in the grass.

Thanks:

To Gloriana for providing the troop with several pairs of childrens scissors.

Original Post:

Today we will continue our discussion about Fall Products. Girls should have at least 12 people they can e-mail about magazines. (You cannot begin selling until October 1st.) At our last meeting we determined troop goals. The girls also decided on personal prize goals.
Results:
-Each girl  should aim for at least $300 in total sales. This will hopefully finance our Spring Camping Trip.
-The girls expressed interest in earning all 6 patches. I made goal sheets for the girls. I'll photocopy them and hand them out at this meeting so they can have a visual reference.


The Fall Product Sale is sort of complicated this year, so I will type up a How-To Guide. We are selling Nut Items Oct.1-10 via sign up sheet, and Magazines Oct.1-Nov.15 on-line. Determining subscriptions and total sales will be a waiting game.

"Nut Items" include all items from the sign-up sheet. (various nut products, candies, and a calendar.)

All girls must turn in FP permission slips ASAP. I have to turn them in before the end of the month.
All girls must register for the sale on-line ON October 1st. I will have the link for you later. Parents and girls must also do the on-line safety pledge.

There are a lot of fundraisers going on now, so give your family and friends a heads-up.

I apologize for the difficulty associated with this sale, but it will be well worth our time: The Troop keeps 35% of all Nut product sales, and $2 for every magazine subscription. If we all work together, we can finance our Big Trip, plus cover monthly activity fees and badge costs for the next several months. And we all know how much the girls love earning badges!
