Meeting 4

Meeting 4-

Do you know what geocaching is? Geocaching is basically a treasure hunt for a hidden container with goodies or logs of whos been there.

The girls found all sorts of treats- silly bands, hair bands, necklaces and much more!
As part of World Thinking Day, our troop is participating in a postcard exchange with a troop in Texas.  We wrote postcards telling them about each of us.
After that, we discussed the Doodle 4 Google creative project. We brainstormed about careers and then began drawing our submissions for the doodle project. Crossing fingers that one of us wins...
