• Last years activities
  • Daisy (Kindergarteners) Teddy Bear Tea We brought cups for the girls to decorate one meeting, and we brought cupcakes for them to decorate along with picture frames to decorate for the girls the second time.  They brought their teddy bears and we drake “tea” (apple juice) in our cups and shared about our teddy bears as we ate cupcakes.
  • Brownie Dance Party (1^st-3^rd grade) We had the girls come to DSU Underground and we had a dance party.  We showed them a new dance, let them dance their own dances in the middle of a circle and be a leader on stage.  We also showed them the ballet part of Save the Last Dance and imitate it.
  • Junior (4^th-6^th grade) “Fit for a Princess” Night We had the girls come to the Zimm Hall lobby and did their make-up and hair.  We watched Princes Diaries Movies and had pizza and snacks.
  • Cadette/Studio 2B (7^th grade and up) Overnighter  We had the girls come and spend the night in the Zimm Hall lobby.  We had a police officer come in and talk about self defense and his drug dog.

• Activities
  • Daisy – We will do a different variation of the Teddy Bear Tea.  We would like to purchase teddy bears with our account money and also purchase white fabric to make teddy bear t-shirts.  We will have them precut to fit the general teddy bear size and then have holes punched in them to tie them together.  Have them decorate the shirts, put them together, eat cupcakes and drink juice, pass teddy bears wrapped up to a song, and then have them open the teddy bears and put he homemade t-shirts on the teddy bear.  Tentative Date:  we will find out at the next leaders meeting.
  • Brownie – Silly Olympics on the TC Lawn or in the Underground.  We will have relays and races that are funny such as:  carrying eggs on spoons, oranges under the chin, etc.  We will hopefully be able to provide a snack…Olympic ring shaped snack.  We will have them from about 5:30/6:00-7:30-8:00.  Tentative Date:  October 11^th or 18^th??
