First, a few wanted to know if our troop will be Girl Scout
Daisy or Brownie. Until January, our troop will be Girl
Scout Daisy and then we will graduate the whole troop to
Brownie in January. This allows us to get the new girls
integrated into the troop and accommodate the multiple
grades we have in our troop.
A few of the girls (and mom's) wanted to know about the
uniform. We leaders are very frugal (ha ha!) and did not
want to make the new girls buy the Daisy uniform for only a
few months between now and January. So we decided that from
October to January, we will create matching troop t-shirts
that the girls will wear to meetings and activities. They
are light blue and the girls will decorate them (and maybe
sign them!) at our first troop meeting. We thought the
troop t-shirts were an easy, fun, and affordable way to keep
the girls matching until January. Then come January, we
will graduate the entire troop to brownies and each girl
will purchase a Brownie uniform.
** If anyone has fabric markers or permanent markers they
can donate to our project, we need them for the girls to
decorate the new troop t-shirts! Please bring to the first
meeting. Thanks! **
A few parents have asked about the new members of our troop.
We are so excited to have 3 new girls joining us plus we
have received a few other inquiries. If you have a
friend/neighbor that might be interested we can accommodate
1-2 more girls, but we would like to keep the troop size
under 15 if possible. If someone is indeed interested, you
can give them my name/number/email and I can talk to them
about our troop and program.
Another popular question we received was about cookie sales!
Our troop will be participating this year in the cookie sale
this January!
We will have more detailed information in the next few
weeks, but we look forward to seeing you all on Saturday,
October 2nd from 1:00 - 300 PM.
