Timeline for final session

ART SHOW -Please join us prior to the leader talk (check email for start time)  for a Girltopia art show.  The girls will be showing off and explaining their Create-it art projects.  I think you will find these to be a special treat.  As you know, the numbers of active scouts dwindle as the girls get older.  The girls who stay in scouts are interesting and exceptional young women.  I look forward to giving you a chance to meet all the girls, see what is on their minds and what they find important.  They are an inspiration to me & hope they will inspire you too !!
LEADER TALK – Last half hour of the session.  Immediately following the art show, while the girls enjoy a special treat, I will give a brief overview to the leaders & parents regarding the girl’s projects and how to evaluate their project in terms of your own troop dynamics, how to help them follow up & what to expect if they go on to Gold. I want to be sure that that you clearly understand the girl’s project and each girl’s responsibilities within it before you leave the sessions, because after Sunday, you (or your troop leaders) are in charge of supervising project completion.
