SERVICE UNIT NEWS:
Weather Cancellations: If the Town of Framingham activities/schools are canceled the day of a meeting then the meeting will also be canceled. If the weather looks poor or there is a weather advisory please look for an announcement from the Leader Yahoo group – we will post by 6pm the day of the meeting.
Cookies: Questions/concerns should be addressed to Helena,. Delivery date is scheduled for tomorrow, Feb 10 at St George Hall. Helena sent out an e-mail requesting your troop’s preferred scheduled pick up time – if you have not responded please do so ASAP, remember “many hands make for light work” any volunteers that sign up to help that morning will be able to take their cookies first
Bridging: Discussion on Bridging to be held at the next leader meeting (March). We will ask a Council representative to attend and explain any new criteria/suggestions for Bridging in light of the newly instituted Girl Scout levels
Girl Scout Sunday (See previous post on these events): Two options in town this year. PLEASE contact the person listed below for the program you are interested in with your request to have girls participate as = Altar Servers, Readers, Gift Bearers, and Door Greeters, also with your troop number and an estimated girl count to have a reserved pew

Sunday, March 15, 10:30 am Mass at St George's Church – contact Missy at maloofx4@... or Patty at pchebert@...
Girl Scout Bowling Event: Back by popular demand is the “Me and My Pal Bowling Event." (Details will be posted on this Web site later this week. Registration information is available now on the Yahoo Leader group.)
Registration deadline is March 4.
The price had to be increased this year due to increase in bowling fees, still a deal at $7.50 per girl (includes patch) and $6 per pal.
Contact person is Mary Ann at masager5@... anyone interested in helping at the event please contact Mary Ann.
Girl Scout Week: Remember the week including March 12 is always Girl Scout Week. This year it will run March 8 to March 14. This is a good time to say thank you to those in the community who help make your troop a success (i.e. those who helped with your meeting location, volunteers who have come to your meetings to help, etc.).
A suggestion is for your girls to write thank you cards/letters/posters or give gifts of Girl Scout cookies, etc.
