Girl Scout Parent Meeting (Post # 4)

Tonight I have a parent meeting for the Girl Scouts. This is the start of a new year. The leader of the troop, Ana, likes to have an annual meeting to let the parents know everything we will be doing with the girls. I am the co-leader and this will be the third year we have been doing this. It is a lot of fun for the girls (and a lot of fun for us). Most of the girls in our troop have been together for 5 years. We hope the girls will have lasting friendships together.

This year, we are planning on having 2 overnights. One will be at the Green Briar Heritage Museums and Gardens, in Sandwich and the other will be at the African American Museum. The program at the African American Museum will be about the underground railroad and the girls will learn what is was like to be a slave.

The girls will also choose a few community service projects. Last year they made bread for the needy and served a meal at the church for the homeless. They also sang for the church and at a nursing home.
