TROOP TRIPS AND ACTIVITIES
If you are taking a trip with your troop, from a local picnic in the park, to an international adventure, send permission slips and 52X forms to Barbara Jean. Current guidelines for trips may be found on the trips web page, or with the 52X Trip Approval Form.

THE RESOURCE LIBRARY IS MORE THAN BOOKS!
Our Resource Library was recently inventoried, and a new listing of contents is now available on the Resource Library web page. You will find much more than books: games, props for ceremonies (including ponds, a bridge, candle logs), camping supplies (dutch ovens, tents, propane stoves!), and of course lots of resource books for troops and leaders. Check out the web page and give the Resource Librarian a call to arrange to borrow something.

TRACK YOUR TROOP FINANCIALS ALL YEAR LONG
Our service unit treasurer has put together some spreadsheets to help you track your troop finances through the year. Download this Excel spreadsheet and be ready when financial reports are due in June!

THINGS TO DO AND PLACES TO GO
Our neighbors, Walnut Creek Girl Scouts, have put together a great list of things to do. Take a look at Out and About on their website. There are lots of ideas for trips throughout the Bay Area.
