Cookie Orders Due

Hello everyone,

Just a reminder that the initial cookie orders are due on Monday, January 31st. Please drop them off to me before 6:00pm on Monday as I have to have all of our numbers entered into the computer that day.

Please drop the form into the mail slot on the porch door. I only need the top portion of the large form with the totals on it. No money is due at this time. You can keep selling using the extra cookie order form through March.

Thanks!

Daisy Bake-Off

It’s time for our annual District Bake-off! The Daisy age level is going to be making “no-bake” dessert items. This can be very simple such as: no-bake cookies, drop candies, rice krispie treats, etc…

The girls will bring their treats to the next meeting on January 20^th. The no-bake treats will be sampled and judged by a blind panel of 5^th graders and/or adults not in our troop. We will also share our treats with each other for fun. All girls who participate will receive a fun patch.

The winner from our troop will take their entries to the district level “bake-off” on February 3^rd from 6:30-7:30 at Bethany Church on Broad Blvd. They will receive small rewards/prizes for winning.

This is an activity that must be done at home with help from an adult.

Rules are as follows:

1. All entries must be made from scratch – no box mixes or “instant” ingredients.
2. Minimal parent help…we understand that these are Kindergarteners so use your best judgment with this one.
3. All entries must be submitted with a typed recipe.

Have fun with this one!

District Family Skating Event, Jan 16th

Hello families,

The district skating event is Sunday, January 16th from 4-6pm at Springfield Lake Roller Rink - 220 Main St. Lakemore, Ohio 44250. I need to know how many of our troop plan to attend this event. I have to give the organizer a head count at this week's leader meeting so they will know how many to expect.

Please let me know by this Thursday if you and your daughter or additional family members will be attending. I have to let them know how many are attending and pay for them in advance.

Since we are not meeting this week and I won't be seeing you until the skating event, I will go ahead and pay for you in advance and you can then pay me at the event. Admission is 1.50 per person plus 1.00 for your daughter's patch. If just you and your daughter are attending, you would owe $4.00. Additional family members are welcome and are also 1.50 to get in. Bring your own skates if you have them.

Additional optional costs: skate rental-$3.00, food items, other extras at the skate rink.

Also, please fill out and bring the "Hold Harmless" permission slips that were attached to last meetings newsletter. If you did not receive them or need extras I will have them for you at the rink.

Hope to see you there! Michelle
