Its been a while...

Its been a while since we posted here but we are still an active group. We would love to answer any questions  you may have.

Whats been going on....

We have had two meetings so far this year and the kids have enjoyed their time together. They have made paper planes and launched them, marshmellow catapaults, played bingo and even had ice cream sundaes.

Yesterday we went on a field trip to Shallowford Farms Popcorn. There was a lot of information given to us about popcorn. But I think the kids favorite part was the popcorn they got at the end of the tour.

Next month we have someone coming to talk about reptiles and we are very excited about that. If you are looking for a group we would love to have you join us.

Tye Dye

At our October meeting our group did a tye dye project. I think everybody had fun and we all left with some sort of color on our hands. But what a great day we had together. Below are a few pictures of our day. If you are interested in our group please join us.

Next Meeting

Just a reminder that we will meet Thursday, October 6th at 1:30. We are going to be tye dying so dont forget to bring your pieces you would like to tye dye.

We will also be signing up and paying for the pieces we would like to paint when Mad Platter comes. We will have them at our November 3rd meeting.

Look forward to seeing everyone there.

Our Christmas Party

For our December meeting we decided we would do a service project. So we went to an assisted living home that has 6 sweet ladies and took them a little gift, had a party and did some crafts with them. The kids had a great time and was able to do for others this year for Christmas. Here are some pictures from our day.....

First Meeting

We had our first meeting today and was able to enjoy the nice fall weather, play outside, have a snack and make a craft (decorated pumpkins).
