[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a program, I think Girl Scouts tends to be weaker than some of the other alternatives in that space (4H, AHG, Boy Scouts Except Now It's Also Girls), but your daughter already has a bunch of friends there, and that makes up for a lot. I'd give it a try. You don't need to make it to every meeting, you don't need to do all the optional activities, and, of course, it's cheap: if it turns out that your daughter (or you) doesn't like it, it's easy enough to drop.[/quote] This might just be you experience with Girl Scouts - because it's volunteer run, it's really all about what the troop leaders make of it. My older daughter's troop leaders have been amazing and have done so many really cool things with them (they've earned tons of badges, awards, camping, field trips, even an overnight out of town trip), while my younger daughter's troop leaders (one of which is me) have been kind of half-assed about it lately. I agree with PPs though that it's worth trying. It's only $25 and you don't even have to sell cookies if you don't want to.[/quote]
