May 11, 2015 Troop Meeting

This week at our meeting we worked more on our animal badge.  Hanna brought in her sugar glider to share with all the scouts. They're found in Australia and are small, cute exotic pets in the U.S. We learned about their eating habits, where it likes to sleep, and that it can glide across the room to give the appearance of flying! Thanks Hanna for sharing! 

 Each Girl Scout then chose an animal they'd like to have as a pet and developed a care plan including essentials like food, habitat, and medical care, and more fun options such as toys. 

 Attention parents of girls going ot the White Caps game this Saturday!!! We are leaving the church at 4:30 p.m. A hot dog and soda are included with the ticket price, but you may send your Girl Scout with money for additional food items. The girls must be dressed in jeans and bring a jacket - there are fireworks after the game and it will get chilly as the sun goes down. Girls may bring a blanket or other items, but they are responsible for carrying these items - the leaders cannot carry items for all those girls! 

 Next week we're attending Slater Farms to learn more about farm animals. Please return your child's signed permission slip to attend the farm.
