Lots of Girl Scout Updates

Hello Leaders Please read all the way to the end, there\'s lots to tell you. A few corrections to the minutes: Presdential Service Award is open to ALL Volunteers, not just girls. The Older Girl Spring Campout is scheduled for May 2-3. Mark your calendars now. Community Service Update: Gilda\'s Club is in Urgent Need of Volunteers. Older Girl Troops especially. If you are interested, please call Deb Vanderweyden at Gilda\'s Club: 453-8300. Tell them you\'re from Rockford and you\'d like to help. Our Lady of Consolation Church is looking for a few older girls to help with a ladies\' Advent Event. The event is scheduled for Friday, Dec. 6 from 6:30-9:30. Please call Marjorie DiLeo at 866-0931 if you would like to help. Leader Position Descriptions: Please complete and return to the next leader meeting. We are still missing 30 leaders\' position descriptions. We need them back ASAP. Brownie Try-it Event: Deadline for registrations is today!!! All school drop boxes will be checked on Thursday. If you have questions, let us know. If you or your new co-leader need to take the Service Unit introduction, please contact Beth so we can get another session set up. Christmas Tree at the Gerald R. Ford Museum: As you know, Vicky Manning and her troop 767 took the lead on this project. They collected all your SWAPs and decorated the tree earlier this month. Today, we found out that YOUR tree won Honorable Mention. Congratulations to all who participated...please go see the trees before they are taken down on Jan. 4. Hopefully, we\'ll have a few photos of the tree on our website by the end of the week. That\'s it for now. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.
