I do hope you will volunteer for your daughters. The biggest challenge facing Girl Scouts is the lack of volunteers to be troop leaders. So many of us are no longer stay-at-home moms or feel we don't have the outdoor skills needed. There is training. Or we don't have time...you know the answer to that, you make time for what is important.

I really think this is wonderful! If DGM's link doesn't work, try this:

I hope Girl Scouts stays around forever...it was an important part of my childhood and who doesn't want to be a Brownie?!
Any group that works with them is A+ in my book

I didn't. I had absolutely no desire to be one.

In college, people often referred to us Gamma Sigs as "girl scouts", because we are a Service Sorority, and have a non-discrimination policy.
I was never a Girl Scout, but I agree that the principles, standards and purposes do mirror those of sororities (whether in theory or in practice).

Dude, I don't know what you're smoking, but it's only polite to share.

I once heard a story about a group of teenage Girl Scouts who made themselves shirts with Gamma Sigma on them--a way to unify their Girl Scout troop without openly revealing their membership.
