Ok so I told M I'd help with teaching the geocaching class today. It's snowing outside and there are no really EASY caches right by the building that are good for us to try and find. So we get there and rummage through our stuff and come up with a few micros and regulars to hide before the girls get there for the "class". Afterwards we split them in 2 groups and show them how to use the GPSr and sign the logs when you find them. After the "class" was the fun stuff everyone got to make their ouw pizza, the adults got to talk and the girls (all teens really) did kareoke and stamping and I have no idea what.
So to get the fun part... I learned that ever service unit is run differently. I'm in Northwood and I really like how we run things but I like what they do in Lakers.. They have an event every month. Fun ones too. SU camp outs, mother daughter nights, bowling, dances, WFD, father daughter nights, dances. It's just WOW!! I can't imagine us having that much stuff happening in a year. Maybe after the realignment we won't have a choice. I also found out that no one at council can aswer questions becuase they are all in the dark about this merger too. We have the highest percentage of girl participation of the 5 councils merging, but we know nothing about what is going to happen come Oct. 1!!! We don't know what if ANY of our trainings are going to count. We don't know what baker we're using for cookies, or fall sales. We don't even know what activities we will have next year... I can't even think of a time when we didn't have a Kelley's island overnight!!
