Hello all,

If you ordered Girl Scout Cookies from my daughter, I have put the cookies in your locker. If you ordered Adventurefuls and/or Peanut Butter Sandwiches, those are still en route to you. (Like everyone else, Girl Scouts are experiencing some supply chain issues. *eye roll*) I should have those to you in a week-ish. If you still need to pay for cookies, cash, Venmo to Beth, or check made out to Beth would be great. I then take that money and submit it through a girl scout app.
Thanks!

Hey all!
Looking for something to do while you’re at home? Genesis Youth Foundation, an organization that works with immigrant and refugee kids to level the playing field through athletics, the arts and academics is hosting an online African Cooking Class this Friday. Would be a fun date night or a fun acitivity to do with kids. The event is from 5:30pm to 7:30pm and proceeds go to support programming for the organization. There are two ticket options: Option 1 gets you zoom password and link, the recipe, and prepped ingredients that you pick up ahead of time. Option 2 allows you to go grocery shopping ahead of time for ingredients yourself and then cook along with everyone on Friday.

Let beth know if you have any questions! It’s a tasty way to learn about another culture and support an organization that supports a lot of the kids that come in to our library.

Hey all,

I miss seeing your faces and I’m forgetting how to talk to other people. Let’s meet up online to say hi and check in! I’ve scheduled a Zoom meeting for this Friday at 3:00pm for anyone who wants to check in and try and people again for a short time. Totally optional–just a chance to be social and say hi.

Login info below. Because of high demand Zoom has taken off the call-in option on free accounts but if you don’t want to shower for this meeting, feel free to join us with computer audio only. 😉

If you ordered Girl Scout Cookies from Penelope they have arrived. I put them in your locker or on your desk. As you have time, please put cash or check in the envelope in the staff kitchen and mark paid on the sheet next to your name. I don’t need payment today. Sometime in the next week is fine. If you want to write a check, please make checks payable to Girl Scout Troop 572. Penelope thanks you for your business.
