Thanks! Will do!

Thanks to OP and PPs...we were just discussing this over the weekend (my cousin is a recent grad and was thinking of freelancing between now and fall, when she will begin teaching), but none of us had any clue where to start looking w/o getting spammed/scammed, lol-off to share info w/ her! :)

We will be working on some badges like that-where some is done at home and shared/used as part of the troop meeting. I was thinking this sheet would be for all the optional/extra badges that girls might want to do outside of what we do as a troop, but I do like the idea of journals/pictures too.

I found a GS Forum! Looks to be very active and helpful!

So far, we've earned petals as a troop...but we've grown from 6 to 8 to 10 girls, with at least 1 more wanting to join us as a Brownie; and we've already had a few misunderstandings about petals/makeups. My goal is to encourage the girls to share as they learn and earn (and hopefully encourage...

So, I've found a lot of examples of "try-it" work tracking sheets for at home work, but not a lot geared towards the new badge requirements set up...so, I though I'd give it a try...what do you think? Anything I should include that I left out? Anything that should be taken out? Ignore the...

Definitely no way to do it all in 2 years :dance3:...we are going to try to do all 3 journeys, but adjusted to fit our troop....for example, instead of the tea party for WoW, we will have a Water "Science Fair" and do lots of hands on water science fun :banana:...I also hope to visit as much...

NM....I am dismantling it into more manageable handouts to be posted to the yahoo group...makes it easier all around ;)

Try your local Dollar Tree...they are sold out online, but maybe your store will have them in stock....good luck!

I was picking up supplies for the blessing bags at the 99cent store today and spotted these "Dancing Daisies" and decided they would be a cute end of the year gift for the girls. Too bad they don't sing too :lmao: (j/k)

Since we are all thinking about wrapping up this year/making plans for next year-does anyone have plans for end of the year/bridging gifts? I found a cute idea online to give the parents a little daisy planter starter set (like the ones you find in the Target dollar spot, or you could buy...

I definitely plan to revisit the plans/budget with the girls...we just finished sales Sunday, and we were going to talk about how sales went tomorrow anyway, so now I will just work in a plans/budget discussion, too. We didn't do nuts, either, but I have heard they are harder to sell. I would...

The girls FAAARRR exceeded our expectations for cookie sales. They all participated and did amazingly well. There is enough money for the service project, fun goal, vests (which the girls voted for before sales-they are super excited about being Brownies next year) an extra fun/just because...

EEK! :scared1: I just got an email/survey forwarded to me from the council. With the new regulations allowing councils to charge up to the same amount as national for registration (by the way, national registration is going up to $15, which isn't bad, imo), our council is considering charging...

Thanks for sharing! Yeah...I know it is way too long, but it is a very rough draft and I kept thinking of things to add...I will definitely be narrowing down/making changes before I ask the parents to fill it out :thumbsup2 ETA: I already eliminated a few questions Thanks for chiming...

Soooo.....I started looking for examples of end of the year surveys (why reinvent the wheel, right?) and then discovered google docs and began playing with it...anyway....the end result is this lovely little form, which I won't need for at least a month and a half, and which will probably change...

Yours is the model I am using as our goal for giving the girls more repsonsibility :thumbsup2 Do you just ask parents/girls to sign up on the calendar or do you assign them a certain day? How far out do you set this up? Wow, I would love once a week homework, lol...we have homework every day...

Anyone else looking ahead to next year? We are bridging up to Brownies and have gone from a small troop of 6 to an almost full troop of 11 (I will take up to 12; after that I would need a dedicated co-leader). Just looking at the Brownie Guide and our first journey (Quest) I can see that the...

Happy 100th Birthday Girl Scouts! Anyone doing anything special to celebrate? Our SU had a 100th event on Saturday, and the troop is going to see the Lorax next Sunday (better late than never, right?).

LOVE drops...it feels like you're weightless and like your stomach has dropped all at the same time...and it almost always makes me laugh...the faster the drop, the bigger the laugh...on our last trip to DL, the ToT pic has everyone else gripping the bars and screaming, and I'm pointing out at...
