World Thinking Day {Bakersfield}

Our Very First World Thinking Day....!

We signed up for the Big Fresno Fairgrounds World Thinking Day...so our Leader Carolen suggested that we do a trial run at the Bakersfield one...since they had one here this year.

Our Country is Taiwan.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It was quite the experience. It was hectic with 300 Girls running around, but it was amazing...!

I am nervous and excited about the Fresno one this weekend. We were going to brush up a bit on Taiwan our last meeting, but there was a small fire that someone started at the school where we meet....and didn't get much done.

Oh well...I have faith in the girls. It will be fun. How can the Judges not look at them and think they aren't adorable?!

Cookie Season...2012....!

100 years of Girl Scouting Birthday Party...!

One event to earn your Tulare County Patch is the 100th Girl Scouting Birthday.

On March 17th 1-3 pm in Tulare, there will be a Birthday Party...!

There will be Singing, Birthday Cake, Games, Activities, Juliette Low Movie and Make New Friends.

It's $5 if you register early and $10 at the Door.

As a Troop, we are to bring 100 things....such as 100 canned foods, 100 tolietry items, 100 books, etc.

Girl Scout Cookie Lip Balm.

I know this sounds crazy but I saw these Girl Scout Cookie Lip Balms that were coming out and I saved a picture of them onto my computer....so I can figure out where they would be sold. Low and behold, I saw them on the Girl Scout Blog.....right here {click on link!}

It says they are being sold at Walmart and Claire's. Jump for Joy...!

I want the set...!

*Update....my husband came home from Walmart with a little gift for me....these! To be completely honest, flavored chap stick like Starburst or Skittles, etc... are never my fav to put on...but these ones are really high quality. They are flavorable and really smooth to put on....I am loving them.

{Bakersfield} World Thinking Day

This wasn't put on the February Calendar so please pencil it in...!

Bakersfield Troops will also be hosting a World Thinking Day.

We are going to have a booth at this location as well as the Fresno location.

February 18, 2012 from 1-3 pm at the East Hills Mall Center Court.

It is $5 per person. This price includes the passport, patch and drinks.

Troop #2447 will be representing the country Taiwan.
What Thinking Day is basically...it's the girls opportunity to learn about what girl guiding is like in different countries.

They go around to different booths and ask the other Girl Scouts what it is like to be a Girl Scout in that country. So, our Troop needs to be knowledgable in our country Taiwan.

At the next Girl Scout meeting, we will be learning about Taiwan and coming up with the different activities we want to do to teach others about our country. 

It is important that the girls go to Thinking Day. If you need rides or anything let me know.

The leaders will be there, but this is mostly put on by the Girl Scouts. They will be the ones leading the activities and teaching the other Girls that come by the booth. 

I'm excited about this event. We didn't go last year...so this is a new experience.

I do need to know asap which girls are going. The Troop needs to be registered in order to receive the patch. Thank you parents...!

No Soliciting...!

This is going to be one of my first craft projects when I move...!

Going to make a board to put outside like this...!

Cookie Rally 2012...!

The Council sponsored a Cookie Rally this year at the Fairgrounds for all the Troops...

We encouraged our girls to go.

*BTW....what our Troop does is, pay a portion of Events to encourage them to go.*
