WAGGGS-L "Picnic Patch"
1. You initially met via the Internet.
2. You made contact beyond WAGGGS-L or wagggschat (for example, e-mail or telephone).
3. You met face to face, and had something to eat at that meeting.
As long as you meet the above criteria, it does not matter if the person you meet is from across the world, across the nation, or even across town.
You can only earn the patch one time. The first time you meet with another list member and have something to eat, you earn the patch. For each additional meeting and eating, you earn an ant. The original idea was for each "picnicker" to sew her/his own ants on, using 3 French knots for the body and a few back stitches for legs and antennae. Those who can't embroider should feel free use fabric paint, or even a fabric marker, or anything else. Participating daughters (or mascots!) can earn a patch as well.
