Roller Skating Pictures

Last Sunday we used part of our cookie sale money to go roller skating in Savannah. We went to Star Castle (excellent facility) and took advantage of their group special that also involved all you can eat pizza and soda.

Girls had a great time learning how to skate. We had lots of falls but the girls dusted themselves off and were back at it in no time!

In our 4/29 meeting girls worked on creating ID cards and finished up their self portraits.

It took longer then we thought but we finally got our sea turtle presentation done! Girls learned computer skills putting together "Did you Know?" information for the display and they paper pieced sea creatures to illustrate the display with the help of Mrs. Howard.

This conculdes are requirements for our sea turtle badge. I will forward our pictures to council office in order to order the badge.

Cookie Rally - FUN

Today's cookie rally was a ton of FUN with lots of girls from our service area (636) participating. Our troop ran a bingo game for the girls as they rotated from station to station. All participating girls received their cookie order forms and receipt booklet. Girls who were unable to make it will get theirs next week at school.
