A sort-of slumber party in McIntosh
Posted by Fred Steiner on Monday, March 12, 2018

By Monty Siekerman
The Daisies and Brownies in Ada  celebrated the 106th birthday of Girl Scouts on Sunday evening with a “slumber party” in McIntosh Center.

It wasn’t an “all nighter” for the children since it ended at 8 p.m., but the youngsters enjoyed a movie and popcorn. 

The kids brought their stuffed animals and blankets to watch the movie “Sing.” The Daisy Troop has 15 members and is led by Alexandria Lacombe. Leaders of the four-member Brownie Troop are Kristi Montgomery and Jessica Keckler.

The guard qualified for the exhibition  performance on Saturday evening. In this Facebook photo, the Winter Guard makes a dramatic pose in bare feet, which means the Tennessee weather is a little warmer than here.

Harry Potter is this year’s theme, thus the brooms and wands.

New cheer performed at King Horn Gym
Posted by Fred Steiner on Friday, March 9, 2018
