Girl Scout Cookies®
News

Brothers and Sisters,

Please contact Brother Nick Johnson if you are interested in Girl Scout Cookies this year. He can be reached at johnson@blet28.org or (520) 247-6370 this will be going on for the next two weeks.

Remember Gaby, the "Official Photographer" of the last couple of Holiday Parties??....  Well, if you want to support her Girl Scout troop and the many community services they provide us all each year.... why not buy some Girl Scout cookies from her troop. They are still $4.00 a box (no inflation). Got all kinds, Checks can be made to SGSC (Sahuaro Girl Scout Council) or GS Troop #1937. Cookies are here, so you should get them a day or so (if not that day) from when you order. 

 
                                                    Thanks,
                                                    Gaby

Girl Scout Cookies are a familiar part of American culture. For more than 80 years, Girl Scouts, with the enthusiastic support of their families, have helped ensure the success of local Girl Scout Cookie activities. From its earliest beginnings to its current popularity, the sale of cookies has helped Girl Scouts have fun, develop valuable life skills and make the world a better place by helping to support Girl Scouting in their communities. Girls are proud that their efforts provide resources for their local Girl Scout councils and for their own Girl Scout troops/groups.

All of the proceeds—every penny—from a local council's cookie activities remains in the area where the cookies are sold. This revenue is used to benefit girls, some of it directly by remaining in the Girl Scout troop/group treasury and some of it indirectly by subsidizing the cost of providing the Girl Scout program in the local area.

"Cookie revenue" helps local councils:

  • Recruit and train volunteer leaders for each troop/group.
  • Provide the financial assistance needed to make Girl Scouting available for all girls.
  • Improve and maintain camp and other activity sites.
  • Keep event/camp fees for all members to a minimum.
  • Sponsor special events and projects.

Thanks.

I cannot stress how important it is for each and every one of you to grant your Local Chairman access to your timekeeping information.
 
Currently these are the screens in UP’s CMTS System I cannot access without you ensuring permission box checked:
 
1)     Pay History Screen
2)     Time slip Inquiry Screen
3)     Employee Statistics-this includes information about Vacation and PL day qualifications and trip counts.
4)     Guarantee Screen
 
 Obviously I need to have these screens in order to do research for our members. Please let me know via email when you have filled out the permission screen to furnish me access. See my post in the members section for the user id's needed or email me at verna@blet28.org .

New railroad book on Tucson
Information jsmith writes "I have run across an new book called “Tucson was a RailroadTown by William D. Kalt 111.   I have not read the whole book yet, but it looks good. There are a lot of pictures of people that I fired for. It is a whos who of the peoples of the early days. You will recognize some of the family names that still work here today. There are not as many pictures of steam engines as I would like. But it is rich in pictures of people and the stories behind them.  It was published in 2007 by VTD Rail Publishing. ISBN 978-0-9719915-4-5"
