[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our GS tries to do camping with Daisy last year and thus year , but no moms want to step up to do the first aid training or certified. There is a lot of liabilities and responsibilities unless one is already being a nurse or doctor knowing all these, and we know some little ones will need the first aid kit at this young age.

Ask your service unit or council if there are any multi-troop camping events. While I was trained in first aid through the GS, I didn't want to be responsible. So I only took my troop camping at these group events, where someone else was the official first aid person. I also liked that they did all the activity planning, so we could just show up and figure out when we went to archery, canoeing or when we made a craft.

We also looked for community events like overnight at the zoo or planetarium (sometimes just for scouts, other times open to all). To the girls, it was like camping and I was fine with sleeping bags in a large room with a roof.[/quote]
