Community Service Day

UPDATED!  (Apologies if you get this twice!)

If anybody has any of these and can bring to the Service Day event
tomorrow, please let me know:
Socks without a mate -- need LOTS -- (especially kids socks).  Rips are okay!
Fun Stickers or ? (for decorating)
Catnip
Stuffing (need several bags, any amount helps)
Fleece -- need LOTS (up to 100 yards).
Silk or plastic flowers (to wrap onto pens)
Newspaper
Unused/gently used stuffed animals


Unused toothbrushes and toothpaste: Allison Daugherty from Troop 9 is
doing a dental hygiene supply drive for part of her Gold Award
project. She is taking toothbrushes and toothpaste to children on the
Navajo Reservation. It would be greatly appreciated if you and your
girls would donate extra toothbrushes and/or toothpaste that you might
have at the upcoming community service day. Children's toothbrushes
are preferable, but adult ones are still appreciated. There will be a
box for them at the event.

Borrows (will be returned after the event):
Stamps and stamp pads (making cards for the military servicepeople)
Scissors (sharp - for cutting fabric)
Markers
Cheap tablecloths (for covering the tables we're using markers and
messy stuff on)

What am I forgetting?
