Badge testing information

Badge testing starts November 1 and will be available every week that we hold a meeting at St. Jerome. We also welcome badge testers! If you would like to stay the occasional night to help out, please let the leaders know.

Each meeting night we we will have a sign up sheet for badge testing. We ask you to fill this out so that we know whould would like to get tested, and for which badge. We also try to keep badge testing to a maximum of 3 badges per night for a Brownie so that she does not miss too much of the regular meeting.

What to bring for badge testing:
 
If your daughter is bringing a badge for testing at a meeting please ensure that she brings the following and add her name to the badge testing sheet when she arrives: 

a) Her program book with your signature beside the badge which she has completed – the leader who does the testing will also sign the book so you know that it was examined.

b) Any items pertinent to the badges (i.e., for the collecting badge bring in the collection, for an art badge bring in what was completed, etc. – for large experiments, cooking etc – a description and a picture from the brownie is sufficient).

c) Please ensure that the work is completed by the brownie.  If possible, it would be great that anything written down is done by the Brownie.  If she is not able to discuss what she has done (i.e., too shy, forgets) this allows us to know that she understands the badge components.
