Town Crier Bakery Tour Reminder

Don't forget the tour of Town Crier Bakery is this Saturday!

Town Crier Bakery

29 Peddler's Lane

Lahaska, PA 18931

Our tour begins at 2:30 p.m.

Girls should wear their Daisy uniforms.

 Plus, please bring their CookiEZone printouts if they have them!

World Bazaar ~ Still Need Help...

All Daisies have signed up to assist with the needed supplies for World Bazaar. But, we still need some Daisies to sign up to assist with the Presentation Board and the Food/Drinks.

Presentation Board:
Info on Italian Language
Picture of Country/Titles of Topics (i.e. Food, Language, Cities, Girl Scouts, Fun Facts)

Please remember, each Daisy is expected to help with the Presentation Board.

I have already purchased the Presentation Board, so if you want to bring your Daisy by to add her info to her board, please let me know. I hope we can have the Board completed prior to the event, so we don't have to worry about finishing it as the event is starting.

The Presentation Board is one of those Science Expo display boards, so your topic should be done in  a large enough font to be read easily.

Food/Drinks:
Italian Cookies
Salami and Cheese Cubes
Italian Bread or Italian Soda
Fanta Orange Soda

Each Daisy is expected to bring a food and drink item.

To see the updated list of who is bringing what, please see the World Bazaar post further down the blog.

If you have any questions about this event, please feel free to contact me.

Last Call for Cookie Reports

The CookiEZone reports for "Online Marketing" and "Goal Setting" were due at our last meeting. I am closing out the cookie sale, so if you have the print outs for your Daisy but forgot to turn them in, please let me know as soon as possible.

I must submit all this information to Council, so you must turn in these print outs to me by this Saturday (3/3). I will not be able to accept them after Saturday.

Rehearsal Schedule

This will be the rehearsal schedule for the troop to prepare for Lip Sync 2012.

All rehearsals are on Saturdays at 3:00 p.m. in Cianna's house.

March 10

March 17

March 31

April 7

April 21

Please add these to your calendars.

If your Daisy will not be able to attend a rehearsal, please let us know as soon as possible.

Also, please remember that they must bring their buckets with them to rehearsal.

If you think that they will not remember to bring the buckets to rehearsal, Nicole has offered to keep them at her home, so feel free to leave them with her after the first rehearsal.

Cookie Sales Closed!

I am happy to say that our troop sold 916 boxes of cookies! Out of those boxes, 91 are being donated to Cookies from Home which is wonderful!

I know the girls are so excited about greatly surpassing our initial goal of 300 boxes!

Please note, we are in the process of processing the last of the financials for the sale, so if you still owe money for cookies taken or have any donations to submit, please turn them in to me or Brigid as soon as possible.

The trip to Build a Bear is scheduled for April 14th at 4:00 pm and the trip to the movies to see Madagascar 3 is scheduled for June 9th. Please R.S.V.P. for both of these events as soon as possible.

Several Reminders

Next Meeting:
Just a friendly reminder that our next meeting will take place this Friday (2/24) at 5:00 p.m. It is our Annie Movie Night and we will be having it at Cianna's house. I will be sending out Cianna's address by email tonight.

Cookie Sales:
Any last cookie orders need to be sent in to me by Friday (2/24). All payments need to be in by this Friday as well.

If your Daisy used the CookiEZone website, please have her bring a printout of her goal chart.
If she utilized the cookie marketing section of the website as well to send email postcards, please have her bring a printout of the email list she sent the ecards to.

World Bazaar:
We still need several Daisies to sign up for needed items for the World Bazaar. Please check the previous post for an updated list of what is still needed. Please remember, that each Daisy needs to sign up to bring at least one item from each group (i.e. Supplies, Presentation Board, and Food/Drinks).

New Events:
Don't forget to R.S.V.P. for the new events on our calendar.

Cookie Sales ~ Wrapping Up...

Our cookie sales have been going great! Almost all of the girls were able to reach the 50 box goal which is wonderful! We will be able to go to Build a Bear and to the movies as the girls voted upon.

The last day to submit any cookie order to me is this Friday, February 24th. This will give us enough time to get the cookies, process payment, and close the sale before the Council deadline of March 4th.

I currently only have Peanut Butter Sandwiches and Thanks a Lots in stock. That does not mean I can't get other cookies though. A local Cookie Cupboard has opened up for troops to pick up individual boxes of cookies. So, please don't hesitate to ask for any cookies.

As always, if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Bakery Tour

Town Crier Bakery

Valentine Card Exchange

Don't forget that the girls will be exchanging Valentine's Day Cards at the meeting this Friday. So, please have the girls bring one card for each girl.

 It looks like we might also have a new girl joining our troop, so please have them bring an extra card for her.

Also, don't forget to let me know if you need anymore cookies. If I do order any more cookies, it will only be to fulfill orders submitted to me before Friday. After Friday, I will let you know what cookies we have left and then we can attempt to sell those, so that the troop doesn't have to pay for them out of troop funds.

Cookie Sale Update

The troop had a goal of selling 300 boxes of cookies! Each Daisy had a goal of selling a minimum of 50 in order to help us reach that goal.

I am happy to announce that the troop has already doubled their goal by selling 600 boxes of cookies. Plus, almost every girl has reached their ndividual goal of selling a minimum of 50 boxes. So, they will definitely be able to go to Build a Bear as they wanted, plus they will be able to decide what else they want to do with their cookie sale money.

We currently still have 100 boxes of cookies left. I am looking at whether we will need to order any more since we still technically have a couple of weeks left of the sale.

If you have any orders for cookies at this time or know you will need some more cookies, please let me know as soon as possible. So, that I can determine whether we need to get any more cases at this point.
