COOKIES ANYONE????
A
message from Jennine Bell,
SU cookie manager.
Hello Ladies:
This is Jennine Bell one of
the SU cookie
managers. I'm just trying
to reach every leader that I
can to give their troop the
opportunity to sell cookies
this year. If you have
already given me your cookie
mom info thank you so very
much.
If you are NOT selling
please let me know also if
you haven't already.
If you are a registered
troop and haven't given me
an answer council will be
contacting you in January.
If you are a NEW troop I
possibly may not have your
info as of yet so here's
mine. Please let me know if
you are selling or not.
Kelsey
D. is a Girl Scout
Ambassador in the
Sycamore Service Unit. She
is working toward her Gold
Award and needs help with
her project. Please see her
email below. You can contact
her via email at
kdrapkin22@gmail.com
if you’re interested in her
attending a meeting to talk
about her project and to the
girls about her experience
with Girl Scouts:
My name is Kelsey and
I am a junior at
Sycamore High School
. After being a Girl Scout
since
Daisies, I have
decided to take the next
step and reach for my Gold
Award. I have decided to
send
care packages to an
orphanage in Lesotho, Africa
called Little Angels. I am
collecting warm clothing,
school supplies, books, and
toys for children aged 2-5.
I was wondering if I could
come speak to your troop
about my project and just
about Girl Scouts in
general. Thank you in
advance.
