Brownie Troop 78

In May, we bridged 

and 

are now Junior #318!!!

****1999-2000 year:  This year our troop has 20 third grade girls.  Our big trip this year is to spend a weekend at a Dude Ranch.  All of our money is going toward this trip!  Other than that we are finishing up  our last few Try-its and getting ready for our bridging. 

Also this year (going into next year), we have 6 girls who are completed the requirements for their Catholic Religious Recognition "I Live My Faith". These girls will receive their recognition at the Bishops Mass in September 2000.  Good Job!!

****1998-99 year, This year there are about 20 registered girls.  Almost all of these girls are in 2nd grade.  These girls have had a busy start to their year.  They have participated in a Bike Rodeo, went tent camping for the first time (in a storm too!!), and went on two field trips.  Troop 78 is very active!! Currently they are planning their Halloween Party and Investiture/rededication ceremony.

Congratulations!!! To our Brownie (Kayleigh) who, on September 20, 1998, attended the Bishops Mass and received "The Family Of God" religious recognition.  Good Job:)

****This year (1997-1998) Brownie Troop 78 will meet after school on Thursdays. Troop 78 has 20 registered girls and 6 registered adults. Out of the 20 girls, 19 are first year Brownies!!  In December one of our friends moved....we sure do miss her.

This troop has an older Girl Scout helper who comes in and help out at meetings as well as teaches us songs.  Our helper is working on her Silver Award.   As part of her Silver Award, on March 5, 1998 she ran the meeting and helped the girls earn their Dancercize Try-it!  Thank you and good job!
