Subject: [GS] booth sale slots posted and other deadlines Changes to my e-mail lists: I am back to e-mailing to both the Cookie Managers AND the troop leaders to help get the information out. After speaking with some troop leaders, they expressed an interest in being kept informed. If a troop leader wants to opt out, just let me know and I'll delete you from my mailing list. Also, all the messages I've sent are archived on our web site in the Cookie Manager section. If you think you missed something check through the messages there. --TRAINING : Past due ---------------------------------------------------- If you are a new Cookie Manager and have not attended training, contact me! There are quite a few things to know and we'll have to mentor you along. --PICKUP MATERIALS: Urgent priority! ------------------------------------- I still have bags for the following troops: 1296 1297 3704 3706 3713 I also have some extra supplies for 1269. Please make arrangements with me to pick them up on my porch. The Cookie Managers really need their guide book and password. The scouts really need their materials. Handle this as soon as you can. I also have some spare materials, so I can supply replacements and extras as needed. --SIGNATURE SHEETS : Past Due ------------------------------------------ The following troops have not given me their cookie manager signature sheets (look in your bag of materials): 1271 1275 1277 1285 1290 3703 3706 3713 3714 3722 3729 You can drop these off at my house, or mail them to Ralph L. Vinciguerra 98 Pine Ridge Rd Reading, MA, 01867 --DIRECT DEBIT INFO : Deadline Jan 5 -------------------------------------- The following troops have not yet provided me with direct debit information: 1262 1263 1264 1265 1266 1268 1269 1271 1275 1277 1281 1282 1283 1287 1290 1304 3296 3297 3703 3705 3706 3713 3715 3716 3723 3724 3725 3728 3731 Mail me a voided check to 98 Pine Ridge Rd, Reading, MA, or call me by phone and verify it live if it is unchanged (don't leave a message). I need to check the detailed numbers. Just saying "it's the same" is not a reliable verification. ----QUICKBASE : Deadline Jan 5th------------------------------------------ All cookie managers should now be logging into quickbase to verify their IDs and passwords are correct. If your access does not work, contact me right away so we can get it fixed. By Jan 5th you also should have entered your scouts and contact information. My apologies to the following troops who do not yet have their access information, I'm in contact with the council now trying to get you setup: 3706 ----BOOTH SALES--------------------------------------------------------- The booth sale slots are now setup as of Dec 9 at 12 noon, and those who attended the Dec 6th service unit meeting are in a lottery for first allocations and should have sent me e-mail requests by Dec 10 at 9PM. Once those are processed, I'll proceed in in the order of arrival in my e-mail box, 2 slots per troop. The status of the booth sale reservations will be maintained on our web site (readinggirlscouts.org) in the "Cookie Managers" section under "Booth Sales". We took the appoach of providing ever possible slot, so that troops could gravitate to their favorite choices. We avoided having overlapping slots in the same area of town, but there are often over lapped slots across town. We do not expect all the slots to be used, and we'll be letting the establishments know which slots are in use as we use approach each week. I apologize for the delay on this, but we had so many slots and I took on the task of assembling the overall schedule so I underestimated the effort required. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ralph L.
