Goodbye Brownie Troop 1727.......Hello JUNIOR GIRLSCOUTS!

After 3 years, Ava bridged from Brownies to Girl Scouts! She really had a blast this year and even met her cookie goal, earning an ipod! She LOVED the American Girl Fashion Show and the day trip to Sweet-n-Sassy and The Melting Pot! Thank you Mrs. Erin for a fun and memorable year! She's really going to miss all her friends, but is excited to start her new year as a Junior too! :)

Wed. April 14, 2010 was Ava's last day as a Brownie so she went ahead and Bridged to the next level. Bridging is an important transition in a Girl Scout's life. It's a defining moment when a girl becomes aware of her achievements and is ready for new adventures and responsibilities. Celebrating this change should be fun, personalized, and memorable for everyone involved. And most of all, it should be designed by the girls in true partnership with adults. The girls all read something and then they formed their brownie circle around Ava and she was "flying" up to Juniors. After the Brownie Circle, Ava walked across the bridge where Erin presented her with her new vest, pin and handbook. Of course then all the girls wanted to walk across the bridge!
