November 2005 News Letter
Well we have another BUSY month ahead of us. With the Holiday Season approaching, Ceremonies, and Fieldtrips, we are going to be seeing each other a lot this month. Last month we worked on the Orange Petal Responsible for what I say and do. This month we will be working on the Purple Respect myself and others and the Rose colored Patch Make the World a Better Place. Please talk to your Daisy about the morals of the petals and have them tell you what they mean and how they can use those morals in everyday life. This month we will be focusing a lot on these petals and what they mean. We will also begin planning our Camp Trip. We are leaning toward June 2, 3, and 4th. So mark your calendars and get the weekend off work because all Daisy?’s must have an adult accompany them, for the weekend. We are also looking to do a service project with the Detroit Animal Shelter and hopefully meet the ?“Detroit Animal Cops?” as seen on Animal Planet. They are in need of new or used items. We will send home more information once we have that Trip planned.
This month we have a few things going on
November 11th is the Ringling Circus at the Palace of Auburn Hills. Remember if you get there at 6:30 you can go down to the Circus Ring and meet the performers. Your Tickets are going home tonight.
November 12th is the Autumn Harvest Indian Festival at the Southfield Pavilion
10:00 a.m. - 7:00 p.m. ?• Traditional Native American dancing, drumming, food, storytelling, arts and crafts. $7.50 per person, or call 248-398-3400 for more info. This is an event you can do as a Family, this is not a Girl Scout Fieldtrip.
November 15th We are hoping to have Special Speaker from the Henry Ford Hospital come talk to the Troop about Girl Scouts against Smoking. This will go along with the patch Respect Myself and Others.
November 24th Happy Turkey Day! Have you ever been to see the Thanksgiving Day Parade in person? Here is another fun Family thing to do. Attached is a Map of the Parade Route if you choose to see this amazing show in person. Dress warm and bring chairs and blankets to sit on. This is not a Girl Scout Field trip this is something fun to do with your family.
December 1st Thursday! We will have a Ceremony on this day in the Gym. We are going to be Bridging 4 girls to Brownies. We will be pinning our new Daisy Girl Scouts at the Investiture part of the Ceremony, and we will be doing a Rededication to all the returning Daisy Girl Scouts at the end of the Ceremony. Please invite your whole Family to witness this very Special Moment in Girl Scouts. Following the Ceremony we will have a very special treat to celebrate this milestone in Girl Scouts. Bring the Camera and Camcorders!
