Dues
I know things have been crazy for everyone the past few weeks, I've been going over the troop account and realized that there are a few girls who are behind on the dues. If possible see me at the bext meeting and I will let everyone know where they stand. Im going to sit down with Ms. Ana within the next few weeks to discuss next year and how we can do things differently. Im willing to hear any ideas from the parents. We will try to get the girls together a few times over the summer for some fun activites and to keep everyone as close as they are! Two meetings left and the summer fun will begin!!!

Early Bird Registration
Please make sure you register online asap.
At our meeting on May 23rd I will be handing out postcards with the information on how to register your daughter and yourself online. Be aware that the Girls Registration renewal had gone up to$24 and adult is still $12 . ( If there are any questions feel free to talk to me)If you decide not to join us next year please let me know, I hope we can continue with our special group of girls, but if some decide to not return I need to add new girls to our troop.
If you are coming back I will deduct the registration fee off of the dues after our first 6 meetings.
I'm looking forward to our girls advancing to Juniors and will be working on some new ideas over the summer with Ms. Ana. I would love some parent ideas they are always welcome.
Please register early so we can get some of the early bird benefits...
