We had another very successful meeting tonight, complete with pizza again, thanks to Katie, but we're still missing Danielle. Everyone is a lot further along in their prerequisites and getting close to the dreaded project proposal.

After we enjoyed our dinner, we haphazardly began to show different things to the troop, like several photo slideshows, while everyone was doing something else. We got a little more organized and worked on getting things ready for group presentations, then presented to the troop. We heard a lot about a ton of different things, like the ocean, toy development, and drunk driving.

We think that everyone will be done with their prerequisites in time to submit proposals in December. This means that everyone has to finalize what they want their project to be, and they have to find a project advisor to help them along the way.

We also talked about making and selling cakes around election day to raise money to cover different Gold Award project costs. We have to discuss this soon, because election day is coming up.

We will meet again on November 5, 2008, from 6:30 to 8:30 at Connie's house. Email Meghan with any items that you want to add to the meeting agenda.
