Early Bird Registrations
I have re-registration forms that I will be handed out on May 21st. The Early Bird Campaign runs from April 1- July 1, 2013. If you turn in your form by June 14th, you will be entered into a drawing for a gift certificate at Daisy Knapsack (I think for $100 but am not 100% certain its that amount). They will also receive free entry to the summer picnic.
  • 2013-2014 Fees: Girls $25/ Adults $15 = $40. Make check payable to GS Troop #60340 Due by June 6th if interested in the drawing. If not, by July 1.

SAGE CAMP TO COLLEGE REWARDS!
SAGE matches dollar for dollar what you spend on camp and puts it into a special college savings account. So this year, Gigi earned $225 dollars for college by attending Timber Trails! It's not too late to participate this year. Most any residential or day GS camp counts. Lean more through the brochures below. 

https://secure.tuitionrewards.com/index.cfm?

http://www.gsofct.org/pdf/membership/formLibrary/camp-to-college_for_families_GSOFCTv2.pdf

Guaranteed scholarships - up to one full year's tuition - at more than 300 participating private colleges and universities through the SAGE Scholars Tuition Rewards® Program. By saving or investing with one or more of our financial partners, you will earn annual Tuition Rewards based on the value of your eligible investments, including life insurance policies that build up cash value that can be used to help pay for college. Each Tuition Reward point is equal to a $1.00 guaranteed minimum scholarship at any of our member schools. The maximum scholarship varies by college - but currently is over $40,000! Enroll your family members - children, grandchildren, stepchildren, nieces, nephews, etc. - from birth until August 31 of the year they start 11th grade.

Summer Picnic
A summer picnic is in the works for a day of fun at Paradise club. Date - to be announced soon. It's a Mother/Daughter event. Early Birds will receive a free pass.

Color Guard
An introduction to color guard is Sunday May 19th at Mount Carmel Congregational Church. It's a perfect way for your daughter to see if she'd like to do this. Many girls probably would so give them the chance to make the decision. It is volunteer-only which means if you cannot make a ceremony, they will contact someone else on the list. No pressure.

Bridging
With the end of the year approaching, events where non-registered guests/family members are in attendance require supplemental insurance per GS procedures. Joan Remy, a GS leader in Hamden will be submitting a form requesting supplemental insurance for their Bridging ceremony and is offering to have our event piggy-back onto her form to save money. 

This insurance is based on the likelihood that someone could get hurt. We only need insurance for the likely amount of non-registered attendees who could get hurt, not necessarily all attendees. Please RSVP by May 13th for our Bridging Ceremony so I know how many will attend. 

Uniform for Bridging
Have girls dressed in plain khaki pants and a white blouse/shirt with blue vest. If you do not have a vest, please wear insignia pinned to shirt. Let me know if this is a problem.

Town Ceremony Details 
Please arrive by 5:45 p.m. at the Elks Club on Whitney Ave. on Thurs. May 30th.
Hamden Girl Scout T-Shirts
If anyone is interested in these unique town GS T-shirts, available in Kelly Green or Navy Blue with the sleeping giant logo from the town seal and Girl Scouts, CT on it, contact: Pat Delaney 203-287-1414 for more info.

Big-Y Bakery Tour - Free for Girl Scout Troops!
Girls can go behind the scenes in the bakery department at Big Y. We can do this as a troop in June or over the summer if we have any interest. They will get to see the large refrigerator, freezer and oven and hear about the different kinds of cakes, icings and fillings made there. And, a favorite part of the tour, allows girls to decorate cupcakes to take home! Please let me know if this is something we'd like to do at the end of June or perhaps over the summer as a get together. I will need a parent/mom to organize.

SWAP - For Brownie Meeting on May 21
SWAPS, otherwise known as "Special Whatchamacallits Affectionately Pinned Somewhere", are meant to be traded with girls from other troops for that troop's swaps, and are treasured prizes from each event. Swapping is fun and a great way to make friends, especially if you can come up with a unique idea.
I would like to hold a SWAP making session at my house so we can make a SWAP to thank our new Brownie friends. I am looking for suggestions (see below). 

SWAP making session could be May 18th (Sat.) in the morning or May 19th (Sun.) in the morning or, early afternoon. Please let me know what might work for you. If this is not possible, I will ask girls to make their own unique thank you cards to be brought to the May 21st meeting. 
**Helper needed! Theme is: Make New Friends. We'll need to gather materials and pins (we may have materials in our craft box). Please let me know if you can help!
swaps for Girl Scouts
Some Ideas can be found on Pinterest under SWAP Make new Friends or below:



Girl Scout Day at Lake Compounce
Join Girl Scout Troops of all ages and families for a day of fun! Enter the park early for a variety of hands-on thrill builder activities and design challenges. See the science behind some of the rides. Buffet lunch included. $45 per person. Seethe flyer or contact Erica Mitchell atemitchell@gsofct.org for more information. You MUST register by May 17. Tickets will be sent in the mail along with conformation packet two weeks before event.

May 8th Meeting

May 8th Meeting Agenda


We'll be working on our Red Petal on Wednesday learning about confidence, trust and courage. Should be a powerful and fun afternoon for the girls to connect as they demonstrate competency  in these skills.

Heather (Nina's mom) will also visit and we'll decorate butterflies for her work project. We'll make a few extra to use in our Daisy flower box.

Energy levels have been running high recently to the detriment of positive general behavior. At last week's meeting, most of the girls were demonstrating less than ideal character traits required of girl scouts. We plan on addressing this in our meeting Wed. but it would also be beneficial if you could reinforce these concepts at home and talk to your daughter about showing respect for the leaders, girl scout traditions, and for each girl's opinions, talents and skills.

Reminder: Please RSVP for the Brownie meeting on May 21 by tomorrow. If you have already, thank you!


2014 Early Bird Campaign!
Early Bird is the absolute best time to re-register your troop for the 2014 Membership Year, the 2014 Membership Year runs October 1, 2013–September 30, 2014.  This year, the Early Bird Campaign runs from April 1- July 1, 2013.  
  • The 2014 Early Bird Campaign will run from April 1–July 1, 2013. 
  • This year, the national membership fee for Girl Scouts will increase to $15 per year, which is still a bargain when compared to other activities.
  • State membership will be $10

Blast Off to Girl Scout Brownie!

Even before there were Girl Scouts, there were Girl Scout Brownies -magical elves who did helpful things. Today, girls who become Girl Scout Brownies still help people by going on Journeys like Brownie Quest, WOW! Wonders of Water, or A World of Girls (available in December 2010) with their Girl Scout sisters. Girl Scout Brownies have a lot of fun together! They sing the Brownie Smile song, sleep in tents, go on hikes, and tell stories around campfires under the stars. (Don't forget to make hot chocolate and S'mores.) They may visit museums or zoos, meet people who have interesting jobs, or exchange SWAPS (Special Whatchamacallits Affectionately Pinned Somewhere) with new friends.

You'll learn more about what it's like to be a Girl Scout Brownie by earning your Bridge to Girl Scout Brownie Award. Plus, you'll be taking part in the great tradition of Girl Scout Bridging! As you grow up, you'll continue moving up as a Girl Scout with these special ceremonies.

Earning the Brownie Award
To earn the Bridge to Brownie Award, complete the two bridging steps. These steps 
will help you pass down something you learned as a Girl Scout Daisy and look forward to what's waiting for you at the next level.

Bridging Step One: Pass It On!
Remember how excited you were about becoming a Girl Scout Daisy? There are younger girls who can't wait to follow in your footsteps! As you get ready to become a Girl Scout Brownie, spend time letting younger girls know what you've enjoyed about being a Girl Scout Daisy. Do at least one of the following activities when you get together-or do them all!
• Teach younger girls the Girl Scout Promise, and then take them through the Girl Scout Law. Share a 
story about how you learned to put the Girl Scout Promise and Law into action. 
• Tell the younger girls about Amazing Daisy, Lupe, Tula, and the other flower friends, then share a story 
about your favorite. Why is she your favorite? What did you learn from her about making the world a 
better place? What did you learn about yourself? Help the younger girls color pictures of the flower 
friends to take home.
• Play a game together! Is there a special game you loved to play as a Girl Scout Daisy that you could 
teach the younger girls?
• With your Girl Scout Daisy sisters, make a little something you can give to the younger girls that shows them what Girl Scout Daisies are all about! Maybe a little "ticket" to Girl Scout Daisies? Or a picture of a flower friend with her line from the Girl Scout Law? Or a puppet. Or even a little message on a card. Whatever you make, be sure to explain what it means when you give it to the girls and offer them a great big welcome into Girl Scouts! Perhaps there's a song you can teach them too!

Bridging Step Two: Look Ahead!
Spend time with some Girl Scout Brownie sisters. After all, they know about the fun and adventures Girl Scout Brownies can have together! Do at least one of the following activities -or do them all if you want!
• Say the Girl Scout Promise together. Then find out if your Girl Scout Brownie friends have a favorite part 
of the Girl Scout Law. Were they friendly and helpful, or courageous and strong? Then, ask the Girl Scout Brownies if they can teach you a favorite game they learned to play as Girl Scout Brownie.
• Ask the Girl Scout Brownies to teach you their favorite Girl Scout Brownie song, and then sing it together.
• Ask your Girl Scout Brownie friends to help you make special "tickets" into the world of Girl Scout Brownies. Your Girl Scout Brownie friends can write down the three things they had the most fun doing as Girl Scout Brownies, and then help you decorate the tickets. Take your ticket home as a reminder of all the fun that is in store for you as a Girl Scout Brownie. 
• Ask the Girl Scout Brownies to show you their Journey awards and tell you what they did to earn them. How did they make the world a better place? What new friends can the Girl Scout Brownies introduce you to in their Journeys?
• Start exploring how you and your Girl Scout Daisy sisters can help your community when you become a Girl Scout Brownie. Ask the Girl Scout Brownies to help you decorate a box or jar that will become your "Take Action Idea Bank." Get ideas by asking the Girl Scout Brownies how you can to help your community. Get more ideas by talking to an adult who works in the community such as at a firehouse, hospital, library, or mayor's office. You could even get ideas by walking around your neighborhood with an adult and looking for ways to help. For example, maybe you might see playground equipment that needs to be fixed. Write down all your ideas and put them in your idea bank. These ideas will be waiting for you when you become a Girl Scout Brownie!

April 10 Meeting Update

April 10th Meeting


Our girls are starting to exemplifying all the wonderful traits of a girl scout - generosity of spirit, confidence, courage, leadership and respect. I'm so proud and amazed to see how far we've come in the past few months. It's been quite a journey and only the start, I hope of a long one we will all share.

The year is rapidly winding down and we'll have more news once we solidfy year end activities next week. Meanwhile, we completed the Dark Green Badge - Use Resources Wisely where (as you know by now) we made planters and read Miss Rumphious and talked about saving, recycling and reusing things everyday to make the world a better and more beautiful place. Please glue and paste on that badge. 

Thanks to Heather who helped us with the pots. I'd love for more parental involvement  and encourage those who can to attend our meetings as a guest Daisy Mom. It'll be enlightening and fun!

We meet again on Wed. April 24th. Until then...

Yours in scouting,
Lisa

Wed. March 27th Meeting Update

Yesterday, we completed Smile Cards for sick people in the hospital as part of the Light Green, Considerate and Caring flower petal. We shared how we have been considerate and caring with our friends and families. The girls also practiced being considerate when coloring and did an excellent job. 

Please glue and iron on the Light Green Petal (there is also a Dark Green petal which will work on next - see below).  We also took a nature walk and gathered sticks, stones, leafs etc. for future use when we build our fairy houses later this spring. 

Once the weather warms, we will hold as many meetings as possible outside to enjoy nature and learn more about the "Out & About" side of girl scouts. Lot of fun days ahead! 

Dark Green Petal is next on our agenda. It is focused on "Using Resources Wisely". Please practice the Daisy Song and GS Pledge. Thank you.

Patches, Field Trips & Summer Camp!




MEETING UPDATE

Yesterday, we concluded out unit on "Fair & Honest" of the Girl Scout Law (Light Blue Petal). Please glue and iron on the petal on your daughter's vest/smock. Also, please iron/glue your daughter's earned Cookie patch too. If you don't have one yet and would like Emilie to pick up one patch for you at the Girl Scout store, please contact her directly. *All girls will receive a Cookie participation patch. This is in addition to that patch.

Going forward, I think it makes sense for us to buy the patches and distribute them to the girls at our meetings (it'll be much more fun for them and learning the GS laws will become more immediate and relevant). So, starting with the Cookie patch we will buy the patches and you can send in money on Daisy days. They are usually $1.25 ea. plus CT sales tax. 
I'll let you know ahead of time what patch we're working on and when to send in cash. (This does not effect the Daisy Flower Petals, you will continue to puts these on as we earn them since we're already far into the year.) Thank you.

END OF YEAR

At our meeting Wed., we started brainstorming about fun spring trips and stuff to do now that spring is nearly here. Jen/Heather are also doing some research (right?) to present to us as a troop in late April. The girl's suggestions include: manicure, bowling, pizza party, movies...the usual suspects. Let's wow them with a several small excursions and perhaps a larger year-end party!
At the end of the month, we'll be sending along suggested outside group activities for the troop such as a letterboxing hike through the GS of CT. If anyone has suggestions, which could also incorporate community service and earned patches, please send them to Emilie or I. These are always optional activities but it would be great if we could get the girls together outside Spring Glen! 

CAMPS
Lastly, If you register for any residential or day girl scout camp by April 1, there is an early bird discount of up to $30. I'm planning on sending Gigi to a "try-it" overnight camp at my former girl scout camp, Timber Trails, in Tolland, Mass. It's about a 80 min. drive up Route 8 and right over the border in the southern Berkshires, set on a lake and in a really beautiful area. 
Camp Timber Trails, Tolland, MA For me as a young girl, it was an amazing, magical experience that I started every summer at 6. Eventually, I worked up to 2 weeks until I was about 13 because of the horses! (yes, there are horses at this camp!) and it was a lot of fun. It's a high quality camp, all the girls eat together in the "mess" hall and bunk together by age group and unit. They'll swim, hike, arts & crafts,  sing GS songs as they roast marshmallows over fire and of course, experience overnight camp (no electricity!) with other girl scouts. 
I have very fond memories of this wonderful place and made some great friends that I did keep in touch with, at least for a little while. As you can see, I kind of wish I was 7 again and dreaming of summer camp. I can't say enough about this great place and if you go online you see pictures and get more info.

If you might be thinking about this unique summer experience, let me know and our girls can "bunk" together as "buddies" and be in the same group. Below are the details of the "try-it" session and a link:

Discover Timber Trails (Grades 2 – 3) Fee: $255
Three Day/Two Night Programs For campers going into grades 2-3Try-It A – June 30-July 2
Try-It C -  July 7-9 - Gigi will be doing this one
Is this your first time to sleep-away-camp? If so, gather your friends and come fill your days with fantastic fun in the sun. Enjoy swimming, boating,games, nature, arts & crafts, and making lots of friends. All of these fun camp activities packed together for this mini overnight try-it program. Discover TT is a beginning overnight camp experience for two nights and three days. Check-in is Sunday 3:00-4:00 p.m. Check out is Tuesday at 7:30 p.m 

Happy Scouting!

February 2013 Meeting

Our next meeting is scheduled for this Wed. Feb. 27th. We will continue our Yellow flower petal theme (friendly and helpful). The girls will earn this on Wednesday so please iron it on in the correct position (see below).

We will discuss "love" and what that means (our rescheduled Valentine meeting). The girls will participate in a scavenger hunt and a game craft.

Finally, we will all realize a good dose of satisfaction, especially the girls since cookies arrive next week which is very, very exciting. That means spring is on its way. Now, that's something to smile about!

Understanding the Girl Scout Cookie Program


Girl Scout Cookie Program

Did you know that the Girl Scout Cookie Program is the largest girl-led business in the country, with sales of more than $700 million per year for girls and their communities nationwide? The Girl Scout Cookie program is the leading entrepreneurial program for girls: no university has produced as many female business owners as the Girl Scout Cookie Program has. 


Council-sponsored product sales are really the best way for girls to earn money to pursue their goals: the sales are beloved by the community and come with program, sales, and marketing materials and support that help girls run a great business. And they’re an integral part of the GSLE. 

With every season of cookies, another generation of girls learns five important skills:
• Goal setting
• Decision making
• Money management
• People skills
• Business ethics

The GSOFCT’s Cookie Program generally starts with cookie booth sales that are held for a limited time around Election Day in November. Girls take orders for cookies starting in early January and continue through the end of March. Cookies for these orders are available starting in early March. 

The Cookie Program provides important funds for troops/groups and the council as a whole. Girls and troops/groups can earn incentives based on the results of their sale. 
Training is provided by the Service Unit Cookie Manager to the Troop Cookie Manager and/or Troop/Group Leader. Complete instructions are provided as part of the training.

 A Sweet Tradition 
It has been more than 90 years since Girl Scouts began selling home-baked cookies to raise money. The idea was so popular that, in 1936, Girl Scouts enlisted bakers to handle the growing demand.Two commercial bakers are currently licensed by Girl Scouts of the USA to produce Girl Scout Cookies—Little Brownie Bakers and ABC/Interbake Foods - GSOFCT uses Little Brownie Bakers. Each baker gets to name its own cookies (which is why some cookies have two names) and gets to decide which flavors it will offer in a 
given year, besides the three mandatory flavors (Thin Mints, Do-Si-Dos®/Peanut Butter Sandwich, and Trefoils/Shortbread). 

For additional information on cookie varieties, including nutritional details, visit 
http://littlebrowniebakers.com/cookies/.

Here's to a Great 2013!

DAISY MEETING JANUARY 9, 2013

Welcome back! We hope everyone had a restful holiday break and is ready to get down to Daisy business, chiefly receiving badges and getting ready to sell cookies! I plan on attending the general council meeting on Jan. 9 (perhaps with Lancia, our Fearless Cookie Leader!) and will have collateral for you soon along with important operational details. I will create a "go-to info" posting with pertinent details over the next week.

If you have a moment, watch the latest Girl Scout What Can a Cookie Do? video with your Daisy scout for an inspiring look into just how powerful those treats—and the girls who sell them—can be.



With every season of cookies, another generation of girls learns five important skills:
• Goal setting
• Decision making
• Money management
• People skills
• Business ethics

Most of all, girls gain a tremendous amount of confidence. It’s not easy to ask people to buy something—you have to speak up, look them in the eye, and believe in what you’re doing—all skills that help a girl succeed now and throughout the rest of her life.

DAISY MOMS - Dust off your Irons! 
First order of our 2013 meeting will be to talk about BADGES! The girls will receive their Blue Promise Center badge after Wednesday's meeting as well as two additional petals: Violet and Rose (see below). I made certificates for each which we will hand out on Wednesday. 


Having completed activities for the Rose Petal which stands for making the world a better place in December (we made pine cone birdseed feeders for our woodland creatures), we will complete a daisy chain necklace to be exchanged between our girls for the Violet Petal which means Be a Sister to Every Girl Scout. 

Below is our meeting agenda. If you are the designated snack bearer, please remember to bring snack for 8 without nuts - fresh fruit, crackers, cheese or whatever suits your fancy.

MEETING #3
Theme: Getting to Know Girl Scouts Better

OPENING
Friendship Squeeze
Girl Scout Promise
On my honor, I will try:
To serve God and my country,
To help people at all times,
And to live by the Girl Scout Law

DISCUSSION
·       What is a promise?
·       Why is it important to keep our promises?
·       What if we forget?
·       What do the words, “I will try” mean?

REVIEW GIRL SCOUT LAW
In the Girl Scout Promise it says, “and to live by the Girl Scout Law.”  
Review the Girl Scout Law:  
I will do my best to be honest and fair, friendly and helpful, considerate and caring, courageous and strong, and responsible for what I say and do, and to respect myself and others, respect authority, use resources wisely, make the world a better place, and be a sister to every Girl Scout.

REVIEW DAISY PETALS
Explain to the girls about the Daisy petals again – each of the petals is a different color, and each color  represents a different part of the Girl Scout Law. Then, each girl will receive all of the Daisy Petals and put them together on a sheet of paper as we review the Girl Scout Law.

We will talk about receiving the BLUE, ROSE, and VIOLET Badges and handout a certificate. Moms are asked to iron/glue them on the vest as seen below.

CRAFT ACTIVITY - Daisy Chains
Girls will make a bead necklace, using the string and beads and exchange them anonymously with another Daisy. This activity ties in the GS Law - Be a Sister to Every Girl Scout which we will discuss.

DAISY PETALS
___ Promise Center – Daisy Blue
