Sleepover Drive in Event

From Wendy Berg.

It's a sleepover event that the girls just love to come to!

In February, all the Brownies gather at the hall and the event begins

• with the girls making their cars for the drive inn out of cardboard boxes and anything else the leaders can scrounge, like paper plates for wheels; glitter, glue and paper for decoration.
• The girls drive around in their cars and some get speed warnings from the police (Senior Branch girls).
• The girls are asked to bring in pennies,
  • and they can purchase food at the concession stand
  • and they can also vote for the movie they will be seeing, by placing a penny by the movie they wish to see. The movie that has the most pennies is the one that is watched that evening.
• The girls park in stalls that are defined with pylon markers.
• Some of the girls have their blankets in their cars and some even fall asleep watching the movie.
• All the pennies collected are donated to the Thinking Day Fund and everyone has a great time.

This is also a wonderful bridging event!
