SU Event Cancelled

From Heidi via email:
Hello Lakes and Pocono Service Unit volunteers,

Unfortunately, the Water & Boat Safety, PFD, and Fishing Equipment Instruction
event that was planned for this Saturday, June 7 at the PPL Learning Center in
Hawley has been cancelled. There were not enough responses to hold the event.
Sorry about that.

Thanks to Michelle Talbot of Lakes Service Unit for organizing the event. It
sounded like a lot of fun, and maybe it could be rescheduled for sometime in
the future.

Cookie Sale Incentive Update

From Heidi via email:

Subject: 2008 Cookie Sale- Incentive Update

Hi All,

First and foremost THANK YOU for all the time, energy and effort you have put
into our product sales for this membership year. We greatly appreciate all the
hard work!

Unfortunately, we have ended this membership year with huge challenges with
incentives. It is important to us, as a council, that girls get their earned
incentives in a timely manner. Unfortunately, this wasn't the case with this
year's sale. And we realize this caused heartache for all of you... as well as
many girls. We (along with Little Brownie) apologize to all of you for having
to deal with these issues.

The good news is incentives are now scheduled to arrive! All incentives got to
Little Brownie last week and were sent out for delivery via FedEx Home Delivery
on Thursday and Friday with an estimated 2-3 day delivery time. As you know,
we generally have these shipped to the service units and from there they go to
the troops for delivery. In hopes of getting the awards to girls faster, the
incentives were shipped directly to the troops. We hope that this allows girls
to get them quickly.

Again, my sincere apologies. We will be working to rectify this situation so
we don't experience anything like this moving forward. If you have any
questions, please don't hesitate to give me a call.
