A New Level


Congratulations to Shi Wa Yu Ma!

We are now in the Discovery Level of Camp Fire. The Grand Council Fire was inspirational and moving! Eleven young people earned their Wohelo award last night. Ultimately, we would like to see each one of our girls earn that same honor.

Several families asked about what should go on the collars. After some thought, I came up with these guidleines.

1) Please remove the group emblem (brown, green and red with eagle) from the vest and place on the back of the collar. (Same placement that was on the vest)

2) Consider putting only traditional Camp Fire elements on the collar. i.e. emblems that are symbolic and Camp Fire beads. You may put event items on the collar but as I observed last night, most of the event emblems are saved for the ceremonial gown.

3) Ultimately, the girls will be sewing their own designs and embellishments on their uniforms so I would suggest letting your daughter decide where and what recognition items she would like on her collar.

As always, if you have any questions, please feel free to contact Stephanie or Charlene.

More information will be discussed at tonight regular meeting. We will be collecting the money for the Pancake Breakfast tickets as well as distributing the Spring Campout packing list.
