[quote=Anonymous]My daughter’s troop has done so much over the years, and it’s probably the reason the majority of the girls are still active in the troop in middle school. My dd is not outdoorsy, but she has come to enjoy camping and other outdoor activities because of her experiences with GS. She has gotten out of her comfort zone and tried things because of the group dynamic. Her troop has always used available funds to renew membership but asks in advance if anyone is planning to leave.

Some ways they have used funds over the years include:
-horseback riding 
-Hershey as a group. GS has cabins near the park where our group stayed overnight.
-Busch gardens has a GS event where they keep the park open after hours for the girls and provide a space for camping 
-rock climbing at a gym
-camping 
-snow tubing
-attending a dance party led by an older troop (now her troop is leading the party)
-going on field trips to the White House, Supreme Court, etc. (funds cover lunch for the girls at a local restaurant)
-water park

We’ve also carried a largish balance a few times to save up for a more expensive event (such as Hershey or Busch gardens). Something was said to our troop leaders, but they just had to give an explanation. [/quote]
