Just a reminder that our October 8 meeting will be held outside. This event will count towards the work we are doing on our In My Community Keeper. It will be held rain or shine, so please dress for the weather! Moms are welcome to joins us on the hike if you are available. We also asked the girls to bring a water bottle and their bee prepared kit (in a small bag or backpack that they can easily carry). Also, if you have a chance to talk to your Spark about being safe on the road and in our neighbourhood more generally that would be great. The girls can wear their Sparks shirts if they like, but they do not need to wear/bring their sashes or scarves this week.
Thanks again to all of you for coming to enrolment. It is easy to see that we have a great bunch of girls. We are going to have a fun year!

| Welcome to the 3rd Riverside South Sparks! |
We also completed our first SWAP event this past week. The SWAPs (which are supposed to be cookies) are part of the badge work required (marketing component) for the Cookies Rising badge. We made extra swaps as well, which will be traded with a Sparks unit in Peterborough, ON. The girls will get their swaps from the other group after Thanksgiving. If your Spark did not come home this week with their own cookie SWAP, please let us know.
Also, if you have a family member in a Sparks unit somewhere in Canada that may be interested in "swapping" a SWAP with us, please let Marigold know.
