Brownie Scouts
Named officers
Al Tuesday Meet
Troop I of the Brownie Scouts
met at the Legion Hall for their
first meeting of the New Year,
Tuesday, Jan. 4. Their interest
in Scout work was evidenced
by the fact that without being
I notified of the meeting, and not
having met since Dec. 17, the
attendance was perfect.
The meeting was called to
order by the president, Jeanne
। Johnson. The Pledge to the
American Flag and the Scout
Flag was given, followed with
the singing of “America” and the
“Brownie Song”. The roll was.
called by the Secretary and dues
collected by the treasurer.
The girls then proceeded in
a democratic way to vote for
officers by secret ballot. The
' following girls will hold office
until April:
Sandra Bracewell, president;
Suzanne Weigle, secretary; Mar
sha Lott, treasurer; Anne Wood
ward, American flag bearer; Ann
McDonald, Brownie flag bearer,
and Anita Oldham, scrap book
keeper.
This Brownie troop will go in
to Girl Scout work in April and
were briefed by their beader,
Mrs. J. S. Gardner, on the re
' quirements they must meet us
' a Tenderfoot Scout before being
eligible to “fly up” to the Girl
Scouts.
They will work as a group
I and as individuals on these re
quirements. After practising on
the Girl Scout Song, “Girl Scouts
Together,” the meeting was ad
journed.
