Camp Skills Day
We have reserved Camp Rice Moody for Saturday June 7. Details of this event will follow. But the general idea is to allow for a single day camping experience with cooking and camp skills in the busy spring time. Contact Lori Vinciguerra or Laurie Rodda with questions.

End of Year Bridging
It is the time of the year when we start to plan our end of the year bridging. Bridging ceremonies are now being scheduled:

A newly written set of guidelines should help in the preparation for and the execution of your event.


Reading Girl Scout Achievment Award
Recipients of the achievement award are Reading Girl Scouts. The Achievement Award committee is once again requesting that Reading troops consider a donation of 2 cents per box of cookies sold. For example, if a troop sells 100 boxes, we are hoping that the troop would make a $2.00 donation to the fund. Donations may be forwarded to: Girl Scout Achievement Award Committee, c/o Michelle Kramer, 19 Knollwood Rd, Reading, MA 01867. Click here for award application.

Cookie Incentives and Early Bird Registration
Troop Cookie Incentives will be available for pick up at the May 13 SU meeting starting at 7:15. Troop leaders are asked to turn in Early Bird Registration materials at this time also. If forms haven't been completed by this date, please contact Ronda White at rondawhite@aol.com to arrange getting them in before June 1. If you still have not picked up the Early Bird Registrations, please contact Ronda to do so.

Camp Rice Moody Usage
Ellen Emmons will begin taking reservations for the use of Rice Moody for September 2007-June 2008, beginning on August 10, 2007. In order to be fair to all of the troops, if you are reserving the camp for the entire school year, please reserve only the dates that you will actually use. This past year we had a number of troops reserve the camp and then not use it. In many instances there were other troops who would have used the camp on those dates. If you do reserve a date and your plans change, please let Ellen know that you will not be using the camp.
Use the reservation form to reserve your spot. You only need one form for all of the dates. Please return the form to Ellen via e-mail and she will forward it to council.

Please read the Booking Guidelines before reserving.
