Zoo Lights
We had an amazing time at the Zoo Lights exhibit in December. It was a cold night but the lights were beautiful. It was such a fun thing to do as a troop! The Zoo had a "Scout Night" for Girl and Boy Scouts.

First Brownie Meeting for 2013-2014
We enjoyed a low-key first meeting for our 3rd grade Brownie's. We started it off with the Pledge and talked about what some of our favorite summer activities were.

| Group Meeting We were all introduced to Lexi, the newest member of the troop. Next, Alison showed us how to make some really neat yarn butterflies for the girls to put on a bracelet.

First Meeting as 3rd Grade Brownies
Our first Brownies meeting will be Tuesday, October 1st at 6 p..m.
It will be held in the art room at the school. Like last year, we will have the meetings on the first and third Tuesday of each month.
Due to a change in policy, we will have to pay for the room rental for our meetings. We have decided, as a troop, to have the girls bring 50 cents to each meeting as part of their troop dues. We are going to refer to the 50 cents as "subs" (as in subsidy), which is how our lovely troop leader will be referring to them.
(Subs = Dues)
Our 2013 meeting schedule is:
-Tuesday, October 1st (Jen)
-Tuesday, October 15th (Carrie)
-Tuesday, November 5th (Alissa)
-Tuesday, November 19th (Rosann)
- Tuesday, December 3rd (Barb)
-Tuesday, December 17th (Alison)
Names behind the meeting date are those in charge of bringing a small snack and/or drink for the girls for that particular meeting.
Don't forget to re-register your daughter (and yourself) through the Girl Scout website (here) for 2013-2014

| Boris Kondratieff Boris was so entertaining and you can tell how passionate he is about insects, arachnids, crustaceans and all of the other bugs that he talked about. He was funny and so impressed with the girls knowledge of insects. Thankful that we just wrapped up that unit at school! |

"Rosie" the Tarantula
The big hit with the whole troop was "Rosie" the Tarantula. They were each able to hold her for a moment.
 
    
Fulin opted to admire Rosie from afar...
