Some people act like you're leaving the country by crossing the river. I wish I were better informed about what is going on, though. It's only been four years, but I feel like I've lost all my contacts there!

There are major socioeconomic, political and other differences between District, VA and MD residents which are mirrored in the Girl Scouts membership. This is not a bad thing, it's just the way it is. I don't know how the GSCNC can meet the needs of its Girl Scouts but it does.

BTW, when I cross the Potomac, I do feel like I'm in another world!
