We had our first troop event today and it was a success. Since we don't have any funds, we need to keep it simple for the first couple months. We decided to have a Daisy Movie Day at our local USO, which is free to rent.
At our first meeting, our girls voted on their movie (Frozen won!) and the treats that they would like to have at their event. We made a concession stand, similar to one I saw on pinterest, and bought some popcorn, a variety of drinks and lots of candy. We also printed out some "daisy bucks" for the girls to spend.
We gave each girl $5 in Daisy Bucks, so they had to practice managing their money. We also made movie tickets for them. The girls were responsible for making sure they didn't lose their movie tickets before they entered the "movie theater". They also got to bring home the movie tickets as souvenirs and they earned their first fun patch :)
Can't wait for our next event!
