Next Leader Meeting in Feb - TBD
Financing the Fun Training in LEAD Online
We
wanted to pass on some helpful information regarding funding troop
field trips especially larger ones like the Museum of Science overnight,
Rocking Horse Ranch, and other travel experiences. Kim Lambert who is
our support specialist from Council wanted us to pass on to you that
Council does not offer financial aid for events that are happening
within your troop. The girls should be funding their own trip through
product sales goals with fall products and cookies. There is a training
on LEAD online called “Financing the Fun” and we suggest you watch this
video and then set some goals with your girls and then earn the money
you need to finance their experiences. Kim is of the opinion from
personal knowledge being a troop leader that if the girls earn the
money, it will make their experience much more memorable. Some of these
girls may not be able to experience some of these fun trips or
activities if not involved in Girl Scouting and earning money through
product sales goals.
