We had a planning meeting on Sunday – only 13 more meetings to go for the year. So strange. And I’ll say it again… I work with a great team. Thanks to Snowy Owl Christine, Starry Owl Chan, and Tawny Owl Tracy for getting together Sunday, and to Spotty Owl Carolyn for letting us assign her stuff [...]

This week we’re starting off Key to Active Living with Germ Buster, ZZZZ and Good Health. The three sections fit together nicely. And we’ve done this before and Snowy Owl brilliantly kept it, so there isn’t much work to do to prepare. (To give proper credit, I think Snowy Owl Christine and Grey Owl Kelly [...]

Every year we try to fit in a Brownies Splash meeting – this is a past program idea from GGC Ontario Council that I think deserves a lot more attention that it gets. Go Swimming! It is Easy! If you go to a supervised pool it is a GREEN level event (as of May 2011 – make [...]
