Fall Fundraiser 2013

The theme this year is "Be Your Best You!" 

I just had training on Thursday after we met on Monday, otherwise I would have loved to have met with you. Sorry about that! So...if you have ANY questions, email me :) 

Here is what will be in your girl's packet coming home Monday after school:

This the parent permission form and is VERY important that you complete and return to me ASAP. I will come by your child's teacher at the end of the day on Tuesday 9/24 to collect.

We will collect money on delivery of items, which will be after November 1st.

This is the order form for the nut, chocolate, etc. products. Inside it looks very similar to the cookie order form. On the back it shoes incentives the girls will receive if they sell so many items and they are cumulative. I think the best reward is the patches :) Sell 30 nut items and 2 magazines and you will get the neat set.



This is the sheet that will teach you on how register to sell magazines via emails. Send out 12 emails! It's that easy :)

These are business cards that you can hand out to people at church, work, etc. that guides them to your site to order magazines. Write your name, our troop #, and your online ID# on the back after you register (see above sheet).
These are guidelines for parents with important information and dates.

Some other tidbits of information:
1) Set a goal for your girl :) For example, I know I would like Aubrey to have the patches, but I also want her to set her OWN goal. So I will have to check with her in the morning! Looking at the rewards on the back of the order form may help with this. 

2) Girl Scouts is BIG on being safe, so please be safe :) It's their main focus and priority!!! I have some safety tips from Girl Scouts if you are interested.

3) I also have some selling tips like be prepared (know what you are selling); communicate well (dates of delivery, money exchanges); wear your uniform and state your goal for the sale (our goal to raise money as we are just starting our troop); always be polite; have fun and smile!
