Tammy Rybak was the hostess and served turkey cookies in honor of Thanksgiving. The meeting was ended with the magic tunnel. GIRL SCOUT TROOP 320 At the meeting last week the girls made Thanksgiving cards to give to their families and played some game. In the rush of the holiday activity the news became lost so that does it for the G.S. news this week. The leaders would be most grateful if parents would pick up their daughters promptly at 5:30 when the meeting is over. It has been getting later each week and they were unable to leave last week until 6 p.m. The leaders have families at home who appreciate supper at a reasonable hour too. It is my own opinion that they give more than reasonable amount of time already to the troop and cannot be expected to wait so late. They are not allowed to leave until the last girl is picked up.
