Quote:/sarcasm. Yes SOME troops like the lucky duck's in Aroura's troop got to do some cool stuff and some boy scouts had boring leaders but everyone knows the majority was not that way I had four different leaders and not one thought it necessary to teach us how to even build a fire or let us swim in anything other than a chlorinated pool.it is all leader based. all anyone need do is stay with in the charter and murder was allowed. my sister troop raise money to goto seaworld place in the keys where they swam with the dolphns and some candy factory. again all within the charter. we went to camp 'joy.' over and over and over again.
Quote:We GET to sell cookies? Like it's an honor to sell those things? Cookie sales were the most stressful time of the year. You were pushed to sell them with the threat that you wouldn't get to do anything fun if you didn't sell a lot. But hey don't go door to door because of bad people yo. If you didn't have a parent that could rock the selling game at work you got to sell cookies in the freaking cold (because for some stupid reason they thought February was a great time to put little girls outside selling shit) in front of Walmart or Blockbuster (Auto Zone if your troop got lucky) Don't get me started on the merit badges. Let me say this again; I got actual badges for painting nails and learning to braid. Literally nothing I learned in girl scouts, mind you I was in the system from 5 to 17 with only one year break because my mom was deployed, would ever be helpful on transcripts. The only thing that was helpful for college was the volunteer work at the half way houses and soup kitchens.Calling B/S on this one.
I would wheel the wagon around to help her deliver the cookies (in them days you had to order on a sheet with pics and then like 6 weeks later they'd send out the cookies. the great thing about that? we'd forget where 1/2 the cookies went, so ate what we could not place. The same thing when we went door to door selling candels and knives for the school. usally by the end of the program we had a ton of stuff we could not place. and kept it! so don't tell me my sisters and I were the only one eating free cookies
