Fall Camping 
Our first trip this year will be an overnight camping trip to Camp Lou Henry Hoover in Newton, NJ, the weekend of October 25-27. We'll spend Friday and Saturday nights sleeping in cabins. We'll have a fun day, get to go paddle boating, do archery, tackle a ropes course, hiking and more. And we'll complete several badges. Although we are not sleeping in tents, everyone will need a sleeping bag or bed roll. It's $10 per girl ($15 per adult) and includes all activities, food, tent camping and transportation. Due to their age, all Daisies must be accompanied by an adult. We have limited cabin space, so pay your for the trip asap! The payment deadline has been extended to October 18th. All registration paperwork must be completed and turned in to attend.
Disney on Ice !
We were able to get a limited number of tickets to see Disney on Ice at the Prudential Center in Newark on Wednesday, November 6th at 7p (there is no school on Thursday). Tickets are $22 per person and all family are welcome to attend. The tickets are available on a first come, first serve basis as we only have 40 tickets. We've been told we can get more tickets, but there is no guarantee. Transportation to and from the show would have to be provided by parents as the school bus is out of comission. All registration paperwork must be completed and turned in to attend.
