January 22 and a change for next week

Hi Families!

This week we are doing the Dove Free to be Me Challenge. Your daughters will get a book that we will work through to fulfill the challenge. There is a general section in the challenge on puberty we will not cover in the meeting.

Also, we are going to take next week (Jan. 29) as a catch-up week instead of doing the reporting badge – we have a few odds and ends to do on the skating and basic camper badge that we’d like to finish up. We will also work on some components of the snowshoe badge. If your Guide did not go to camp but would like to finish the snowshoe badge, this could be done with a school trip (I know some of the schools have snowshoes) or a family trek on snowshoes. For more details, please just speak to the one of the leaders.

Finally – we really need your help for the career night on Feb. 5. Your job is probably more exciting than you think!! If you are willing to come and be part of our job fair for an hour on Thursday February 5, or know someone who would be willing to come, we would really appreciate it!
