The Friendship Circle and Squeeze

The Friendship Circle is often formed at the end of the meetings or campfire as a closing ceremony. Everyone gathers in a circle; each girl crosses her right arm over her left and then holds hands with the person on each side of her. Once everyone is silent, one girl starts the friendship squeeze by squeezing the hand of the person to her left. One by one, each girl passes on the squeeze until is travels clockwise around the full circle.

Meeting info.....

Our troop typically meets on the 2nd Monday of every month from 6:00 - 7:30 pm at the Baytown Community Building in Baytown Township. There are certain months when the building is not available on the 2nd Monday and those months will have a meeting on the 4th Monday (January, March, September).
