As far as Silver Award work, we attended the Gold and Silver Up All Night, which was a ton of fun but also led us through about ten hours of prerequisites! We also went to a 4B's workshop put on by our council and spent fifteen hours each earning the Silver Leadership Award. In the end we decided that our project would be making a state fair booth for Santa Clara County for the 2009 California State Fair.
This year we also earned the Couch Potato and the Creative Cooking badges. Some girls attended a babysitting workshop and some joined a service unit trip to Yosemite in the Winter.
But our main event of the year was our Southern California trip, which all seven of our active members attended. For a week we stayed in a private house near the beach. We visited many amusement parks and attractions and also spent a couple days on the beach. Of course, we spent the whole week learning how to work together as a stong, efficient team.
