03/13/15: Walmart Cookie Booth

We were so happy the rain held off this evening. Three very enthusiastic girls sold 159 boxes of cookies in 2 1/2 hours!

Meeting #14: 03/11/15

Thank you everyone for such a successful cookie sale! We have sold way more cookies this year than last and it is impressive to see girls and families work toward the goals the girls set.

Girls brainstormed how to become philanthropists and help others with some of this money and because of their hard work, girls were encouraged to suggest ideas for a fun end of year reward activity. We will vote at the next meeting!

The sun was shining and it was 60 degrees...we had to go outside! We played a game and checked out the flower garden we planted in the fall...it is waking up and some of the bulbs we planted are peeking out of the mulch.

03/08/15 WVU Gymnastics Meet

Several of our troop members enjoyed Girl Scout Day at the WVU Gymnastics meet. They even met the Moutaineer!

03/07/2015 Lowes Booth Sale

Thank you to the Brownies, Daisies and families that participated in our first booth sale of the year! Girls did a great job attracting customers, bagging their orders and making change. We sold 276 boxes in 4 hours!

Meeting #13: 02/18/15

Daisies worked on their Clover Award by using their creative skills to make posters for the Book Drive for the Used Book Sale. The sale benefits Monongalia County schools in the form of Author Week kits, a children's library at the Bartlett House and book clubs at 10 different elementary schools this year!

Brownies prepared for our Mexico World Thinking Day table.  Several made the God's Eye craft that is a well known craft of indigenous people in the Americas.

We even had a Brownie engineer build El Castillo (Spanish for The Castle) at Chichen Itza from Legos! Notice a loose tooth that didn't fall out at the meeting!

Brownies also colored Mexican flags and colored information sheets on counting 1-20 and colors while listening to a selection of Mexican tunes.

A sister troop will add more materials to complete our tri-fold board below.

Finally, Brownies continued working on the Overnight Bags for kids staying at the Bartlett House. This week, we wrote Thank You cards to Dr. Frum, D.D.S. in Westover who donated two dozen toothbrushing kits and to Kroger whose corporate office donated a $25 gift card so that we can buy snacks to include in the bags.

And in the spirit of thankfulness, Daisies began decorating thank you cards for the hundreds of cookie customers we have had this cookie season!

Here is the finished trifold board we will present once World Thinking Day is rescheduled!
