Farming 101


Our meeting this week was fresh from the farm!
The girls visited Slater Farms as part of their Animal Badge and were introduced to new activities and information.  After meeting the small heard of sheep, each girl was able to bottle feed a baby calf - only five days old!  Several girls went into the pens with the calves and interacted with them.  The girls saw over 300 cows in one of the barns, and toured the parlor to see where milk comes from!  Slater Farms put on a great program and we all enjoyed it!




All third-grade Brownies are invited to attend the Daisy meeting tonight at the church at 6:00 p.m. Before flying up to Juniors, Brownies must mentor a Daisy scout and tonight is their last meeting!  This event will take about 20-minutes and is one of the last requirements before bridging!

Don't forget the Fremont Memorial Day Parade this Monday!  This will take the place of our regular meeting.  All girls participating must wear their sash/vest or a Girl Scout shirt.  We're meeting at the Fire Barn at 6:00 p.m. and parents can pick up their Girl Scout afterward in the park.
