Girls Playing Games

It was wonderful to see the girls laughing, playing, getting dirty and having fun. Shauna and Jenna had the girls playing a whole bunch of group games - some old and some new. It's important for the girls to remember to play and get dirty. As they get older they start to shy away from these types of activities.

At the end of the session, we sat together and discussed our fundraising event scheduled for Saturday May 31st. Shauna talked about Rogers House, our charity of choice this year. We also talked about Anna McDonald whom many of the girls knew and recently passed away this winter after battling cancer on and off for years. Anna was 8 years old when she died and spend some time at Rogers House which she very much enjoyed.

For our event, The Tween Club Bizarre Bazaar, we are asking the girls to bring 12-20 items to sell in a garage sale (books, toys, etc.), something for the bake sale in small individual servings, and they will be running activities for little ones (bean bag toss, trike races, etc.). The girls will finish the planning for the event in their individual meetings this month.
