they came home with a schedule from the train they rode from Hammonton to Atlantic City, a postcard from Jackson, NJ, & pictures of their adventures.
The train was very crowded, & they met lots of other flats. In Atlantic City they went to a candy store called "It's Sugar" where they made candy necklaces, chocolate bars, & ice cream sundaes. They saw a water/light/music show, took a walk on the beach, where they buried themselves in the sand & enjoyed the view of the Atlantic Ocean. They saw a parade on the board walk with bands, mummers string bands & fancy cars! Then they rode the train back home.

Awards Ceremony
was held @ 7:00p.m., May 16, 2008 @ the Mercer Community Building. Jazmine, Cortney, Morgan, Dominique, Morrisa, Rayne, Mackenzie, Katie, Kelsie, Lindsay, Breanna, & Nicole attended, along with their parents & some of their grandparents!We started off with the Girl Scout Promise & Girl Scout Law.
Then we did a "Scouting is a Candle" Ceremony:
Scouting is a candle that will light you on your way
It's trying on your honor and helping every day
Exploring worlds around you and looking wider still
Pitching tents out in the woods or hiking up a hill
Guitars and voices blended under God's majestic sky
Loving those around you Friendships that never die
The meaning in a moment, in a smile or a tear
Makes you a little taller with each Girl Scouting year.
A promise to your God and to your country, too.
Makes you a part of your world and your world a part of you.
It's something you may carry on wherever you may go
You can't hide the happiness, you can't hide the glow.
That's the kind of secret that you want the world to know.
A candle glows forever it shines eternally.
(everyone) make it shine on everyone, that's the way the world should be.

Girls: Take my hand in friendship

Remember all the good times
We had along the way.
Take my hand in helping
Other people that we know
The more we give to others
The more that we will grow
Take my hand in learning
To camp on nature’s ground
Enjoying trails and campfires
With new friends that we have found
Take my hand in givingOur knowledge of true scouts
To girls we meet and talk to
Who have so many doubts
Take my hand in thanking
Our leader and our guide
With sincere appreciation
For standing by our side.
Take my hand in eagerness
To be an older scout
We’re proud to be bridging
Is what we’re going to shout
So take my hand to follow
New scouting paths in sight
We’re joining hands with each
And in friendship we’ll unite

To hold our country dear
And abide the Girl Scout Law
Each day throughout the year.

Rayne's Flat Stacie comes home from Michigan!
She was in Willis visiting Daisy Troop 532, where she met Emma, Cassidy, Mariah, Makaila, Corinthia, & Cathy. They went to Camp Crawford in Milan, learned how to tap maple syrup, & went to a troop meeting where they earned the green petal for using resources wisely. They sent her home a stick with maple sugar on it, & a "Horse Tail", which they learned was something the early settlers used to scrape the junk off their teeth before Colgate & Crest were invented!
