January 23 January 22 MeetingWinter has finally arrived here in the northeast. A cold meeting last night ... I apologize and will turn the heaters on much earlier next week. FamilyGuy and BooBooKitty were absent. All others suffered through admirably.
Since FamilyGuy is the Leader this month, meeting started out a little off, but we managed to fall into some kind of order and get a few things accomplished.
Cookie Money was received from Boomba and Princess ... thank you both. BooBooKitty still needs to pick her cookies up and get them delivered. I expect everyone else will comply with the directive to have monies turned in by next Monday at the latest.
We haven't had enough snow for a sledding outing and I assume at this point that a winter fun day has been scrapped. FamilyGuy will make a final judgement on that when she returns to meeting. Valentines of any kind have been scrapped as well, and some kind of an Asian appreciation activity will be substituted. Bug will have details next week.
Lodge Camping has been moved to a date TBA in April as all other dates have been filled already. Boomba has a list of activities and is working on scheduling work teams to cook and clean for a Friday night thru Sunday afternoon trip.
An Easter Egg Hunt and Activity Day is being collectively planned for April 1. We have decided on a community family event to be held (hopefully) at a local elementary school. Games will include the Egg Hunt, a bean bag toss, pin-the-tail-on-the-bunny, sack races, and spoon races. Princess is putting together a shopping list from OTC to round out our supplies. Someone will need to be assigned to make flyers for the Service Unit and to post around town. I will raid the craft room for Easter decorations, misc. supplies like tape, rope and scissors, and supplies to set up race courses.
More discussion on this next week along with whatever FamilyGuy has planned.
Until Next Week,
Mrs. B January 10 January 8 MeetingI have been remiss. This week's meeting was another relatively quiet one. BooBooKitty was absent due to illness. Mrs. B's christmas gifts were handed out belatedly. Response was less than enthusiastic, but I hope that the personal nature of the gifts will mean something anyway.
FamilyGuy is leader this month. Since we are not having our normal snowy weather this year for some reason that only the heavens can answer, we are having trouble scheduling a sledding/tubing event. It was brought to the table but there seemed to be very little interest in discussing it. We have tentatively agreed to move scheduling of the event to February.
Bug has decided to adapt her "Valentines for Soldiers" activity to something else because she just realized that in order for soldiers to get them, they would already have to have been mailed.
There is no word on what is happening with Boomba's Lodge Camping activity for March.
Easter comes early this year, so I have been trying to arrange an Easter Egg Hunt event for March 31 if the weather cooperates. I plan to have several additional games besides the Egg Hunt as well as something to eat and drink. More on this as I flesh out the plans.
There will be no meeting next Monday because of the Martin Luther King Jr. Holiday. I'll see you all on the 22nd.
Mrs B.
