A few reminders

Good afternoon on this dreary Monday!  Hope everyone is doing well and gearing up for a new school year, which also means a new AHG year!  The leadership team is super excited about this new year!!

I just wanted to give you a few reminders:

* Tomorrow night is our Information Night along with a Late Registration session.  If you have not turned in paperwork, have not ordered any necessary merchandise, and/or paid your registration fees please plan to do so tomorrow night.  If you have friends that may be interested in AHG, please invite them to attend!  **Remember we had a location change and we will be meeting in the Video Cafe.**

ALL girls and parents are encouraged to attend.  We will be sharing a lot of important information with you about the upcoming year.

* Please remember to RSVP, either via TroopTrack or by emailing me, for the War Memorial groundbreaking ceremony on September 20.  The organizers need a headcount from us.

* If your family will be attending the October camping trip, please reserve your site or cabin as soon as possible and let me know which site your family is on.

* At this point, we are in need of one Unit Leader -- Tenderheart Level (1st-3rd grades).

Hope to see you all tomorrow night!

First Annual Family Fall Camping Trip!

We are excited to announce the details of our First Annual FALL Family Camping Trip!
Where:  Dan Nicholas Park  http://www.dannicholas.net/camping.aspx
Each family will need to call and reserve their own cabin or tent/camper site - fees will be payable when you call to reserve your spot.  (704) 216-7808
When:  October 11-13 (spending Friday--the 11th-- & Saturday--the 12th--nights)
Cost:  Cabins:   $47 per night.  Cabins have a 2 night minimum stay and also require a $50 refundable deposit (payable when you check in and refunded upon key return/cleaning of cabin).
Tent/RV sites:  $24 per night with water and electric hook up (one family per campsite); $19 per night with no water or electric.
We are reserving a shelter that will be our main meeting/hanging out spot.  Rental will be for Friday night and all day Saturday.  We will ask each family to chip in a few extra dollars for this.  The shelter has a grill, electricity, and a fire place/pit.  There are no lights so we will need to bring lights to plug in or lanterns?  Hopefully the fire will give us some light as well.
We are staying at the upper part near the bath house and near the shelter.  I have attached the camp map and cabin info documents.
When you call to reserve your site or cabin, tell them you are with AHG.
Additional details regarding exact times, food, etc will be forthcoming.  Everyone just needs to get their site or cabin reserved as soon as possible.
There are plenty of on-site activities to participate in or you can choose not to participate in those.  Any additional activity fees will be up to each family to pay.
Please email me and let me know once your spot is reserved (let me know what your site number is so we can keep up with where everyone is please).
If you need help in locating camping gear to borrow, please let me know that as well.  (I have closed the survey since we were able to get the plans made quicker than we anticipated.)
Please do not hesitate to ask questions.  If we don't know the answer, we will find out!  :-)

Information Night/Late Registration -- Location Change

Due to a scheduling conflict, our Information Night will be held in the Video Cafe (not in the Worship Center as originally planned).

The Video Cafe is located across the long hallway from the gym (kind of behind the gym/kitchen).  I would suggest parking in the side parking lot -- as you come in the entrance of CBC -- there is a driveway and a parking lot to the left.  Park in that lot and come in the side door there.  The Video Cafe is down the long hallway on the right.

Hope to see you all on Tuesday!

Information Meeting/Late Registration Night

If you missed our Ice Cream Social/Registration Night on Tuesday, but are still interested in AHG, we will be holding our Information Meeting and Late Registration Night on August 20 at 6:30 at Community Bible Church.  We will meet in the Worship Center for a time of sharing information about AHG and our troop specifically.  We will then have a time for late registrations.

Everyone should plan to attend this very important meeting.  You will be given lots of information about AHG National and how our local troop works.  There will also be a time of question and answer at the end.


Current and new members that were in attendance Tuesday night -- if you did not pay your registration fees, please plan to do so on the 20th.  We will not be able to officially register your daughter(s) without at least the registration fees paid.  The $26 registration fee goes straight to AHG and has to be sent with the registration forms.


If you were unable to order your uniform and/or handbook, we will be placing another order after the meeting on the 20th.  These items will most likely not be here in time for our first meeting.  If you want them in time for the first meeting, you are welcome to order them directly from AHG.  http://store.ahgonline.org/


Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you!
