Important Information

We have sent several emails in the past few weeks and apparently none of the Comcast email subscribers are getting their emails regarding Brownies. If you have Comcast you may need to use the blog as your information source for upcoming meetings. Also, you may want to try to contact Comcast to determine why the Brownie emails are not getting through (we have tried from different email addresses) or check you SPAM folders. You may also subscribe to this blog so you will be notified whenever a new post is made. I will send an email as well.

Please read the following for information you may have missed.

Our first meeting will be October 7 at Camp Lyndon (yellow art building) from 4:15 until 5:30. We will meet every other Tuesday from then on.

Dues are $30 and payable at the first meeting (this replaces the $2 per meeting dues we have done in the past).

Brownie Vests may be purchased in the basement of Puritan Clothing in Hyannis. You will also need an American Flag patch, insignia tab, trefoil pin, Brownie pin, Brownie council ID set (says Girl Scouts of America and the council of SE MASS), and our troop numbers 782. The staff at Puritans are very helpful and can give you everything you need as well as show you a picture in the catalog of what the vest should look like.

There is a Girl Scout event this Saturday night at Heritage Museums and Gardens. It is a family movie night starting at 6:30. The movie will be Surfs Up and tickets are $4 for children and $5 for adults. Let us know if you plan to attend. Wear your vests!

Welcome Back To Troop

We have a great year ahead of us! Our first meeting will be Tuesday, October 7 at 4:15 at Camp Lyndon. Please be on time so you don't miss snack! Our meetings will end at 5:30.

This year will be all about teaching you to be good leaders. You will all get the chance to work in a team to plan how to earn one of your Try Its. You will also have a turn to take pictures and update our blog from home to earn your Point, Click and Go Try It.

What Try Its do you want to earn this year? Think about it now and come to the meeting with your ideas.
