]]> Comment on Songs: Top 10 Girl Scout Songs – Traditional by Tuesday Shannon http://www.gslakemomscoutnotes.com/2012/10/songs-top-10-girl-scout-songs-traditional/#comment-734 Tuesday Shannon Fri, 05 Oct 2012 11:37:04 +0000 http://www.gslakemomscoutnotes.com/?p=1797#comment-734 I completely LOVE Linger…my GS troop knows that they will always make me happy when they sing it around the campfire. I’m in my 40s and havne’t heard some of those songs so will look into them.

We also have some “modern” fun songs such as the Pirate Song which really sounds like an old Irish Pub song but it is a favorite among my Daisies/Brownies/Juniors. We also changed Brownie smile to Daisy smile when we were just Daisies!

I am excited to start using it. My girls are older (7th grade) so I am hoping to also link them to the site so they will also get the updates, etc.

Even if parents don’t go into the site regularly to see everything it’s OK. It send automatic emails the day before events and meetings. It saves us from trying to keep in communication with 15 girls’ parents.
We post our packing lists, events, permission forms, and pictures for everyone to have access so we don’t have to print everything for everyone. They have to be responsible for doing it. It takes a lot of responsibility for that management off the leaders.
Try it-the only thing I don’t see happening is parents don’t show it to their girls.

I don’t mind at all! I am also in NC (P2P!) and have attended MANY Leaderees! I’m missing this year’s event. I might try to attend next year’s Leaderee. It’s run by some wonderful volunteers – take a minute to thank them for their hard work! Maybe I’ll see you at a NC GS event soon!
