Decorating the Bridge

Regular emergency contact

We are in need for an emergency contact for the attending troop leaders to get in touch with in case there is an emergency at an event.  This person would also be the head person that girls parents would contact if they needed to get ahold of their daughter at an event like Encampment.

4 Hours 4 Her

We are looking for 4 hours from each family for our girls per calendar year.  

Snack schedule

We will have a rotating snack schedule for our regular meetings.  Snacks should be something that will not limit the girls to their projects they will be involved in.  Just something quick, to tide them over until dinner.  If you can not bring snack on the date that you are assigned, you are responsible for finding someone to trade with.  Girls may bring their own beverages to keep at their seat or use the water fountain when we get a break.

Ronald McDonald tabs

Something we are continuing from troop 2428 is our Ronald McDonald tab collection.  The girls are trying to meet the one million tab challenge.

Help "Pick up The Tab"
Introducing the TABS Club, and the Million Tab Challenge at Ronald McDonald House Charities of Greater Washington, D.C. (RMHS)!

Pop Tabs are a "friend" to RMHC.  Although they are small and easily discarded, when the entire community bands together to collect them, they really add up.  Ronald McDonald House (RMH) is know as the "House That Love Built" because it takes the entire community to sustain it.  We consider each pop tab a little piece of love.  The Pop Tabs program not only helps raise funds and awareness for RMH, but also encourages community engagement and recycling!

Thanks for "Pulling!"

Field Trips

Cookie News

Ms. Korff has generously agreed to be our cookie person this fall.  We look forward to posting any and all information she has for us here!

SHARE

We are currently looking for a parent volunteer to handle SHARE donations.  We would like a collection to be organized (for example, one troop is collecting cans to turn into cash which goes to SHARE).  We would like something other than asking the parents for a monetary donation.  The girls will decide in the fall the amount they would like to earn towards the project and the parent in charge would need to create a visual for the girls to monitor as they strive to meet their goal.

Welcome, combining troops!


Welcome to our troop!




Thinking Day 2013!


In our attempt to communicate more efficiently and make this an awesome year for our Juniors, we have started this blog page to keep track of all that's going on!  Here, we will share pictures, post plans, keep track of spending and earnings.  We will post Sign-Up Geniuses and Field Trip form links and keep on top of who's signed up for what activities, both through the Service Unit and through the troop.  There will also be cookie information and ongoing contests/project statuses.  We will also post notes from the monthly Service Unit meeting.  Families and girls can check back anytime!  If you have any announcements (or pictures), please email them to carynandcolin@msn.com!
