May 7 - Last "Brownie" Meeting!

Tonight was our last night meeting together as Brownies... when we meet again for the Court of Awards Ceremony, we will "bridging" over to Junior Girl Scouts!!

As you know from previous posts, we have been working on sewing jean bags to earn our last Try-It badge. Tonight we finished those bags up by decorating them with patches, jewels, pompoms, and even paint! Every single one of them turned out BEAUTIFUL!!

Once we finished the jean bags, we started on our donation bags for the American Cancer Society. A big THANK YOU to all of you that donated items for this worthy community service project! We decorated bags with markers, putting little cheerful pictures and sayings on them, then filled the bags with the donations! Everyone decorated a bag and was able to choose five items to be placed in the bag. We had so much stuff that we decorated extra bags to make sure everything was donated!!! The bags were taken down to the June E. Nylen Cancer Center downtown and were very much appreciated!! Congratulations to the girls for a job well done!
