Troop 46466 Toolbox
Agreements + The Plan
Registration is confirmed once payment is received.
Arrival is after 6:00pm on Friday, April 17, 2020
Dinner and all of our activity stations will be available for all Girl Scouts to participate in as they elect.
Dinner will wrap up between 7:00 pm - 7:30 pm. We will do our best to make sure everyone eats. Not all young children eat well at events like this.
We recommend giving children a heavy snack or a pre-dinner dinner while they are still with their families.
Pick up may begin as early as 7:00am on Saturday, April 18, and no later than 7:45 am. (If you run late, shoot for 7:30!).
We will provide them with a selection of easy clean-up breakfast food, to eat either when they wake up, or be handed as they are going out the door.
We recommend expecting your Girl Scout to have had poor or not enough sleep. However, they will have had SO MUCH FUN!
VOLUNTEERS
VOLUNTEERS are welcome, at a general rate of 1 free adult per 4 paying Girl Scout Daisies, 6 Girl Scout Brownies attending. However, we understand that different girls and troops have different needs for success. If your group needs a higher ratio, and it makes our budget go wonky, we may ask for the extra adults to contribute to the food costs. However, we expect it to all balance out. #UnicornMagic
All adults attending must attend a Volunteer Orientation on Zoom so we are all prepared, related, and on the same page for how the event will work.
Please select from these dates:
Friday, April 10, 6:30pm - 7:30pm
Saturday, April 11, 10:00am - 11:00am
Sunday, April 12, 5:00pm-6:00pm
All Adults attending are fair game for being put to work! With young children, we understand that it may require some extra flexibility should there be a meltdown or upset. Thankfully, we've all got each other's back!
There is a place to select the area you'd like to work in on the Registration Spreadsheet.
Rainbow Canvas Shoes
Shoes are ordered in small batches to ensure we have sizes needed and delivered on time.
In the unlikely case that our source of shoes increase their price, we will need to pass along the difference to you.
Any approved late registrations may be required to procure their own shoes or pay a late fee.
Piggy Paint Manicures
We provide "Piggy Paint" for manicures. Please see https://www.piggypaint.com/shop/nail-polish/ to see ingredients.
If you do not want your child to participate, please let her adult chaperone know. Our event Volunteers are unable to enforce this, given the number of participants we expect.
Fancy Hairdos
We will provide Non-Toxic, Non-Chemical-Smelly Andalou Naturals Sunflower and Citrus Styling Gel and Hair Spray.
Bring your own Brush, Combs, and Fancy Hair Decorations
We'll have a few extra hair-ties on hand.
Photo Booth / Fashion
Photo Booth and Fashion Show
Bring whatever Fancy Dress Ups your Girl Scout would like to wear. Remember to label anything you want back!
We will take pictures of each girl as she is on the Runway and in the Photo Booth.
If you would like your pictures kept private to you, please indicate that on the registration form.
Otherwise, all pictures will be published on our Google Photos album, and shared with the email addresses submitted with registration.

Fragrances, lotions, make up. We will provide all that, while still respecting sensitive bodies.
Overnight Behavior Expectations
Adults attending are welcome to empower their Troop Members to call home for a "Good Night" to parent who is not attending.
We need not ask Girl Scouts who are weepy to "tough it out."
Weepy children will have their parents asked to come get them. If you think your Girl Scout would be better supported by your attendance, please attend.
The context of this is a very early introduction to sleeping away from home, and for those who are ready, sleeping away from their parents.
This is meant to be fun and successful.
We trust our Girl Scouts to express what they are ready for -- and what they are not.
Photo Release Options
We capture candid and posed moments of our participants via photograph, and audio/video recordings.
Families have control of how those images and recordings are used.
These may be submitted to and used by Girl Scouts of Western Washington and/or Troop 46466 for publicity, educational purposes, and on various social media.
A shared, private, secured Google Photos album is made available for attendees and their families. Some photographs will be shared on Facebook. Participants will never be "tagged," however, participants can tag themselves.
Images/recordings of my participant can be published, reproduced or distributed by Girl Scouts and its affiliates in all outlets, including but not limited to television, newspapers, internet, council publications, recruitment materials and ads without liability or limitation or claims on my part.
OPTION A: Give my permission for myself or my child to be photographed and audio/video recorded. Pictures/Recordings can be used on social media as described above.
OPTION B: Give my permission for myself or my child to be photographed, audio/video recorded and shared with other participants on our private Google Photos Album. Please *obscure* my or my or my child’s face when posting on Social Media or Advertising.
