Badge Placement




The 4 badge triangle on the right side of the vest is the Water set the girls will be earning. They received the first badge in this set (the one with the heart). The Healthy Habits Try It goes along the bottom with the other try its. The Juliette Low patch is a fun patch and should go on the back. See also sash configuration.

November 17 Meeting

We had a great time at the 11/17 meeting! Welcome back Maegan - we missed you!


We started off on the playground...to get our sillies out. As you can see, the girls get me involved in the sillies!









For our special Brownie Day snack, we had ice cream cones with sprinkles. YUM!









We talked about why we loved water over ice cream and added these special places to our water journey mural. Then, we all worked on our water promises and added them to our mural!



































At the conclusion of this, I awarded each girl with their I LOVE WATER badge.



The girls also received their HEALTHY HABITS try it badge and a special Juliette Lowe fun patch for celebrating her birthday at the swimming party.



In preparation for our next meeting, we made Happy Socks for the cats of the SPCA. Some of us got marker on our faces (Madi) and some of us got sentimental thinking of the kitties (Gretta)!
























I am working on arranging our trip and have requested the date and time of our next meeting for our visit. Anyone who would like to come is more than welcome! As soon as the date is firm, I will let you all know!

So behind am I

I have just faced it...I am behind! To compound matters, I left my camera at home for our second meeting! Therefore, no pictures!

What a great time at the pool party! Everyone came! Happy Birthday Juliette Lowe!

Just to update everyone, we talked about everyones gathered water....very creative girls we have! We talked about the reasons we selected these water source and if they are important to us. To continue our journey, we witnessed the water cycle through boiling water. We tried tea, in fancy teacups AND had some southern sweet tea!

Next, we discussed healthy habits so that we could earn our Healthy Habits Try-It!

We left with water drops to make water promises....ways that we will protect, preserve or advocate for water in our own lives.
