At this meeting, we learned that we were going to be the ones hosting the annual tree trim event that we do here at our school. It's where all the troops at our school gather together and decorate our school's Christmas tree. We've been part of it the last several years but this year we offered to host since we are now the older girls. We preselected games and crafts and let the girls go from there. They split themselves up into groups to get planning. Some girls planned a craft. Some girls planned an ornament to make, and the rest planned some games to play. We were inviting all the troops and then rotating around. The girls were so excited and got planning right away. They had to choose what they were going to do, make a shopping list, and make a poster for their station.
We also received an email from a family friend of one of our scouts. Their son was sick and they stayed at a Ronald McDonald House and they wanted us to know why it was so important to them and why they are so grateful that we are doing our project.
It was an exciting and uplifting meeting!
