leaders meetings

will be the 2nd Monday 5:30 @ Hal England Center...no meeting in December.
registrations due end of September & can be mailed to the address in booklet. Linda gave us a few extra blank forms.

SWAPmania

rec'd our 15 swaps the other day, will put #s on them & draw for them at our next meeting. they are all different & very cute! the swaps are from Utah,Ohio, California, & Georgia!
I have also signed our troop up to make 50 swaps for the upcoming All-State SWAP- will buy some foam sheets & come up with an idea (hopefully...)
The swaps are supposed to represent Missouri...I was thinking a state shape with something from Missouri on it...a roller coaster for Worlds of Fun, the Arch, football for the Chiefs or baseball for the Royals or Cardinals...will probably sign us up for the X-mas one as well.

Carly Cardinal has reached her destination

she arrived there August 25th. They mailed their mascot to us today.

Salisbury, MD.
Tonite we're getting our 2nd mascot Bianca Bluebird ready to mail to Troop 68 in Sioux City, IA; Troop 71710 in Cambridge, MA; & Troop 1221 in Mckinney, TX.
She'll visit 2 months in each spot.
(deb was confused, I had signed up for 2 exchanges, & couldn't remember where Carly had went...but I think I got it all straightened out!)

scheduled a meeting

katie's last flat stacie hits the road

Karly is on her way to West Roxbury, MA. They will send us a stacie to host, as well. We still have 8 flat stacies visiting in Michigan, 2 in Minnesota, & 2 that never did get back to us from I don't exactly remember where (they went with Kelsie's flat stacie.) The Flat Stacie Exchange is winding down, this year we are going to do mascot exchanges & swaps. We have sent our first mascot out, but haven't rec'd one yet. Should come any day.
