Flying Up to Juniors!

Our troop's 20 girls bridged from Brownies to Juniors Friday in a "Flying Up" bridging ceremony. It has been great to see how they've grown over the years! We have such a fun group of girls filled with talent and personality, and all you had to do was watch as they one by one got up in front of the group -- unprompted -- to show off their talents!

We had fantastic singers, back hand springers, horse jumpers and everything in between.

We were hoping for a sunny day at the park for our ceremony but, instead, the girls brought their own sunshine to the indoor ceremony Friday.

Over the past year, we've watched some of them perform in the school talent show, cook and serve a meal to a homeless mission, learn all about business as they've sold cookies door to door and collect and donate canned food for the needy. They all have big hearts and want to make the world a better place.

Looking forward to lots more fun with this group soon! Congratulations, girls!

Girls Rock!

Just for Old Times' Sake :-)

Some of our girls have been with the troop since Kindergarten!


I thought it might be fun for everyone to see a photo from back then to remember how far they've come! These girls have grown so much in more than just height. Looking forward to many more fun adventures with them!
