Thread Name: B.S. George W Attacks Boy Scouts
Subject: RE: B.S. George W Attacks Boy Scouts
I don't know if Campfire exists anymore, but it was co-ed and offered some really good experiences.

My mom was a Girl Scout leader. All of my sisters and I were in Scouts. Bet went on to be a camp counselor in the summertime. We were also members of Job's Daughters, plus my three sisters were all in 4H, too. Bet got a blue ribbon at the state fair, if I remember rightly, for a suit she made one year. She's a really good seamstress, plus camper. Her son is carrying on the tradition this summer, working with inner-city kids who are camping in the Rockies.

I thought I was really in heaven when bet, my "big" sister, gave ME her official Girl Scout pocket knife!! I still have it and treasure it.

We never had any boys in Brownies!**bg**
