[quote=Anonymous] Not a leader, but a parent. At our school in APS, the organizational meeting to identify families who might be interested was in September. Once two parents agreed to be co-troop leaders, it opened for registration, and the troop was formed by late October. The first official meeting was in November. Definitely leverage other parents! Our troop leaders are amazing, but each family signs up to volunteer at one of the meetings during the course of the year to help lead an activity or help corral the girls since 15 6yr olds can be a lot to handle! We didn't do cookies our first year. The second year the goal for each girl was one case, which is 12 boxes. That's the bare minimum you need to sell to earn your GS cookie patch. We did decide to do one 2 or 3hr booth, and the girls loved it as one more chance to hang out together on the weekend. Again, families signed up for a 1hr shift at the booth but many hung out for most of the time. It really is what you and the parents make of it. What are your interests, and what do you want out of it for your own daughter? [/quote]
