World Thinking Day and Bronze Award Project Update

On Friday evening, our troop met to cover two major topics.  First, the girls who chose to participate, presented their World Thinking Day projects.  The girls were given the choices of Jordan, Malawi, Pakistan, Venezuela, Russia, Japan, and Ireland.  They were asked to tell us what Girl Scouting is like in the country, what the Girl Scout uniforms look like, and what life for a young girl is like in the country.  The girls did a great job!

The second part of our evening was spent on their Bronze Award project.  The girls decorated white coffee mugs with sharpies for Valentine's Day.  (I put them in the oven on 350 degrees for 30 minutes to set the color.)  They also decorated the gift bags.  We will fill the mugs/bags with sugar free hot chocolate, coffee, tea, chocolates or cookie, and a book of poems/quotes for women or a tie for men.  The bags will be taken to the church by the weekend and then delivered before Valentine's Day.
