Girl Scouts

A MANDATORY meeting will be held on February 28, 2010 from 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm at the Scout Hut. All scouts and at least one parent must attend this meeting. Because scouts and parents do not know much about the Scouting program, we will use this meeting to explain and address any questions/concerns. We will also be going over the resources Scout Society has made available for scouts to use.

If scouts have laptops, it is recommended that they bring them to the meeting. Snacks will be provided for this event. Also, please bring a gallon of water so we may make drinks. Scouts must print out the attached flyer and turn in the completed bottom portion during the February 27th meeting (one per family, please). If there are any questions regarding this event, Parents may contact Ms. Ng and Scouts may contact Brandon Liauw or Jason Kong. **Read More**

Another Eagle Project is coming soon. On February 6, 2010, Life Scout Brandon Liauw will be having an Eagle Project at the Maryvale Orphanage. It is expected to start at 8:00 am and will most likely end at 2:30 pm. The project consists of repainting the foundations and railings of the buildings, as well as waterproofing a patio. It is a dirty job, so be sure to wear Class C you won't mind getting paint on. Good news, lunch and drinks will be provided! All you have to do is show up and help out. If you have any questions or concerns, contact Brandon Liauw. **Read More**

And what do you know, the New Year is just coming around the corner. Another celebration is in order...a Chinese New Year celebration! Once again, Scout Society will be having its annual Chinese New Year party and Court of Honor. It will be held at the Garvey Community Center on February 20, 2010. Cost will be $8.00, but if you're late, it'll be $10.00.

Since this is a Court of Honor, do you even have to ask if this requires Class A uniform? YES! And because it is a Court of Honor/Celebration, if scouts want to get their badges you must turn in a list of the badges earned and money in to Ms. Ng by January 30th, 2010. Make your RSVP's on the website or with Jessica & Stanley Lin. Everything must be finished by January 30, 2010; RSVP, money, a list of badges, permission papers... As always, Parents must be present for scouts to receive their badges. Any question, comments or conerns, contact Jessica Lin. **Read More**
