Girl Scout Troop 4601
September 2014
Welcome Troop 4601!
Our first meeting went great! We got some good ideas from the girls on activities they would like to pursue this year. Welcome to all our girls!
Brownies: Lindsey, Katie, Mary Clare
Juniors: Allison, Gracie A., Kenna, Gracie L., Sydney
Troop Notes
Over the course of the next few meetings, the girls will be learning about camping principles in preparation for a troop camping overnight in November (hopefully November 8 or 15). We will be discussing general rules and safety, first aid, what and how to pack, campfire safety, outdoor cooking, etc. We are planning a one-night trip to Camp Dorothy Thomas in Riverview (about 40 minutes from Lakeland in Hillsborough County). This is a Girl Scout owned camp, and we will be staying in a lodge or cabins.
The girls have also expressed interest in taking a field trip to the SPCA. We are hoping to do this during our meeting time on November 19, as this is an early release day.
More info on these activities to come as we get closer!
