[leaders] Training opportunities

Hello Leaders,
 
I was looking at the GS website (you may have gotten the same email), and ran across this announcement.  If you have any training you need, this would be a good opportunity to catch up. 
  
Save the Date!
 
Adult Resource Weekend
May 13 - May 15 @ CAB
 
More details to come!
 
From what I have seen, they are offering training while attending the Space Day at Camp Anna Behrens.  They provide adult supervision, so maybe you can recruit a parent or two to watch the girls while you take the training.
 
Look up more information on gsmists.org

[leaders] Re: Cookie sales update

What is the time frame that cookies will be available for pickup on March 23?  Is it only during the day or will there be evening times available too? 
 
When and where is the February meeting that we can sign up for pickup times?
 
Cookies that we will need for cookie booths need to be entered into the system (along with the girl's orders) this weekend too, right?
 
Thanks,
Cathy Hannigan

Hi everyone,
I wanted to share a few updates;
  • Please make sure to enter the correct troop level into ebudde in the settings tab.  If your troop at a level that is eligible to opt out of incentives and your level says Daisy (for example) in the settings tab, you will not be able to opt out.
  • Cookie pick-up is going to be March 23rd.  I will have a sign-up sheet at the February meeting.
  • If you have not sent me your troop's completed Training Roster yet, please just bring me a copy at the February meeting.  I have only received copies from the following troops; 
           2314, 3365, 3770, 3020, 4001, 3384
 
  • I have gone through all of my emails & do not think I have any outstanding questions or issues with anyone, if I do please email me again!!
Thanks!
