Input Sought for Theater Badges

My name is Katrina Butler and I am a Cadette in Mary Cole's troop. I am currently working on my Silver Award Project. Part of my project is to develop a badge/patch program for Girl Scouts to be offered at Desert Stages Theatre, a nonprofit organization. 

I would appreciate comments and suggestions from troop leaders regarding their needs and wants of a badge program. Your input will help tailor the program. You can send your information to me through the neighborhood email.  Please mention in your email what Girl Scout level you lead. Thank you so much!

See you at the theatre!
