Zoo Invite from 2nd grade sister Brownies!

From their troop leader:

Here's a fun question for you!

Would any of your girls like to join us in our Zoo Snooze sleepover at the OKC Zoo on Saturday, July 30th? We've gotten the rsvps from our troop and we have room for more girls. We'd love to invite our sister Truman troop to join us. There should be no cost to your troop since we have to pay for a minimum anyway. Moms will come and stay over too! We get a animal program and a night time tour of the Zoo. We leave the Treehouse in the morning but are welcome to stay at the Zoo for as long as we want on Sunday. Just let me know if you all are interested. We'd love to have you!

I need firm RSVP's no later than July 22nd. I am not sure if Abby & I can attend yet (I hope so!), but Niki & Hailey are planning to attend.

Thanks!

Misc summer info

Hi all! I've got a couple of updates:

1. Cookie dough incentives & cookie patches are in! If you haven't received them yet, feel free to contact me & arrange a time to pick them up. I will also have them at the pool party in August and at our first meeting in September (tentatively scheduled for 9/15/11). Each girl that participated in cookie sales have at least a $15 gift card they can use at the http://www.gswestok.org/ shop. It can also be used for the fall membership fees!
2. The fall membership drive is coming - I'm not too concerned about recruiting members, as we already have a big group. However, if anyone knows a first-grade Truman girl that is interested, please have them contact me for membership info.
3. I will have membership forms at the pool party, but you can also fill out the forms online (you will need to fill out online if you want to use the cookie dough incentives gift card). If you do decide to submit your girl's membership form online, please get me a copy for my files as well.
4. Please check the Patch Progress section of the blog to make sure your girl has all her patches. Please let me know if she's missing something.
   
5. Finally, I am starting to plan our meetings for fall. I am also working on dividing up some of the group responsibilities so that volunteers can take on small projects to help the troop & troop leadership. I'll get more info about what we might need soon. Everyone has ideas/skills/resources that are valuable! Please consider what you might be able to do to help the girls. Feel free to contact me with any ideas or to make us aware of your special skills. We appreciate you all!

Thanks,
Misty
