A New Crop of Daisys!
|
We need some volunteers to recruit future Daisies at Kindergarten "Round Ups" this
spring. It's an easy job. We just need a leader or parent to setup a display table and pass
out flyers at their school's kindergarten open house. Please contact Sandy if you can help.

Used Books and Video Drive
|
Watched that movie for the hundredth time? Know the book so well you can read it with
your eyes closed? If so Troop 1530 has a service project for you! We are collecting all
these well loved videos and books and donating them to Emanuel Children's Hospital. We
have been working with the hospital all year making tray favors for the kids and we still
want to do more. Please help us help the kids! Bring your used books and videos to the
next leaders meeting. Any questions or if you can't make it to the meeting contact Tanya.
Thanks for your support!

Challenges in Your Troop
|
Everywhere this year, people seem to be more on edge. Our world is a different, less
friendly place than it was last year. The economy is handing some of us troubles that we
would rather not have. Tensions are closer to the surface. Please call your mentor if your
troop is having difficulties of any sort between individuals, or contact the neighborhood
chair, Kathy Don't let your challenges affect your troop or your daughters. Everything will
be handled confidentially.

It's Neighborhood Patch Time

See Liz tonight and let her know how many Service Patches and Family Star Patches you
think you will need. The actual ordering will take place at the next Leader Meeting but, we
need to get an estimate so price can be determined. Remember, these patches are custom
made so, we will be placing a bulk order. We may be able to reorder the Service patches but,
we will not be able to do a reorder on the Family Star patches!!

If you miss Liz tonight, be sure to let her know your numbers ) as soon as possible!!
