[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Too bad the Scouting America (formerly BSA) troops for girls were not available then for your daughter.  They offer the outdoor experience Girl Scouts used to have without the cookie stress.  And, [b]girls have the pride of earning everything they are awarded. [/b] Since opening to girls 5 years ago, the program has been well accepted by girls, who no longer feel it is an “alternative” choice.  Girls now make up about 30% of membership.  My daughter will become an Eagle later this year and has loved it.[/quote]

What an odd thing to say. Girl Scouts also have the pride of earning everything they are awarded. My daughter has earned the Bronze, Silver, and is working toward her Gold Award. It is a huge amount of work and hopefully will have a lasting impact on our community. There is no reason to disparage one organization just because you participate in a different one. People like you give Boy Scouts or BSA or whatever it's called now a bad name.[/quote]
