The Golden Ladder Brownies planted sunflower seeds : -and learned how tolook after them. We hope the girls will have lots of seeds in the fall for the birds. The Tweenies spent time learning to tie their ties and saying their promise. Welcome to Sherri'Oesch who came to Tweenies this week. During Brownie Ring, Brown Owl told the Brownies about craft day in Goderich on April 12 and about our bake sale to be held on April 2 at the, school. On April4,2, the Second Brownie Pack met at the Clinton Public School. Their meeting started with a bake sale for the students. With only 22 Brownies to do the baking, each one had to bring three dozen items to be sold. Thank you to the parents who worked so hard baking and decorating much of it for Easter for the buyers, also to the mothers who sent so much extra and helped at the sale. This was a first for our Browntes and we are pleased it was so suc- cessful. The proceeds will be used by the Pack for special outings this Spring. Thank you to Mr. Taylor and the Clinton Public School for their help. After the sale the Brownies made Easter bunny refrigerator magnets for their mother's. During Brownie Ring, the girls were reminded to be at the school on Saturday, April 12 at 8:15 to go to Goderich for craft day. They will be returning tc the school about 12:3f that day.
