January Meeting

Thank you Reiko for holding the meeting at your house. The girls this month:
(1) Learned the Hula. Reiko and her older daughter taught us to listen to the rhythm, move our hands like the waves and rotate our hips! What a fun time. Eileen passed out leis and was a great helper!
(2) Made smooties focusing on healthy calcium rich ingredients. We used milk, yogurt and spinich. I know the "Green Smootie" wasn't the favorite but it wasn't bad! I will include the recipies on the side bar. A special thanks to all the moms that brought their blenders. :-)
(3) Had their Cookie Meeting! Moms and girls learned about cookie sales, dates, and we got to taste test a couple of the cookies. Remember, our cookie kick-off will be on January 14th and cookie sales begin January 15th. The girls goals include selling approx. 2700 boxes to fund a troop/family BBQ and carnival, donating to the animal shelter and shipping cookies to the military for our Gift of Caring. Our 3% increase over last year would be to sell 2163 boxes. I know we can do it!! If we do we'll make "Super Troop" and other incentives.
