6/14/16 Meeting Reminder
We will be meeting this Tuesday from 6pm-8pm at St. Luke Joy Presbyterian Church 4301 NE Vivion Rd, Kansas City, MO 64119. A representative from Goodwill will be bringing drinks and pizza to celebrate our participation during the Goodwill service project. I have badges/patches to hand out to the girls. We will then discuss what the girls would like to do for their bridging party and then work on the next steps of our Bronze Project.
What to bring:
- Wear your vest or sash.
- Any research your daughter may have done for the Bronze Award.
- Is there anyone who would like to bring a special dessert to have with our Pizza Party?

***Please RSVP by the 20th to let me know in advance if your daughter is planning to attend, if she wishes to ride the Go Karts, and if there will be any additional Powerplay packages/Go Karts being purchased for other family members.***
Horseback Riding Field Trip **for those who registered**
The troop has voted to go on a Horseback Riding field trip to earn their Horseback Riding Badge. The program would cover all steps of the badge. (ex: grooming, feeding, and riding to name a few). I have sent in a final head count to the facility. If you have not paid yet, you may do so at the troop meeting on Tuesday. Or you can make other arrangements with me.

I will share the Finance Report once I turn that into Council (due end of June). Next month the parent committee (myself, Wendy W., Jennifer R., Barb S., and Sarah P.) will be meeting to put together the new budget for the next year which will take into consideration the things the girls wanted to do as well as basic troop expenses (camping, supplies, badges...just to name a few). Once that is put together I will share that as well.
