Meeting No. 16 - First Aid

Today the girls had a surprise visit from a Hunt County EMT and got to tour the ambulance! How COOL!! Jamie talked with the girls about what to do in an emergency situation and the girls got a chance to ask Jamie any first aid questions they had. We also put together a first aid kit and talked about the significance of each item in the box. Jamie donated all the supplies she brought to talk about too! She taught the girls how to treat minor injuries and prevent outdoor injuries. Jamie - we can't thank you enough for donating your time and supplies to our troop!

Investiture and Re-dedication Luau

Tonight we had an awesome Investiture and Re-dedication Luau! A few weeks prior, the girls chose the theme and decided on a potluck dinner. With weeks of planning - the ceremony was a success and hopefully something the girls will remember forever! Each girl had a part in the ceremony. We re-dedicated 4 girls who have been with the troop since the start. We also invested 6 new girls who joined at the end of last year and at the beginning of this year! The girls also displayed their artwork they made to earn the painting badge!
A big thank you to Lisa at Hunt Regional Medical Center for allowing us to use your facility! And to Debbie at Hunt County Party Rentals for donating part of the rentals! We really appreciate it!!

Meeting No. 15 - Painting a Story

Today the girls finished up the last requirement of the painting badge by teaming up and painting a mural. They used a large canvas and divided it into 2 parts. Each group choose a theme that told a story they loved! Both groups did a great job with delegating tasks so each girl played a part in creating the mural! Great job girls! You earned your painting badge today!
