Personally, my favorite was juniors. I had awesome troop leaders who always had something new and exciting going on. They not only did girly stuff, but also outdoorsy stuff. I use to love going canoeing, sailing and windsurfing down at Camp Kateri.

More than anything, though, they made us more aware of people and how to get along with others. Everything we did was as a troop and there were no cliques, even though our troop was about 45 girls.

My advice, if you decide to go through with it, is to plan meaningful activities that involve all of the girls' interests. Who knows?! You may help them discover themselves...
Thanks for the advice! I have already been thinking of my time in Girl Scouts and I remember amazing times, camping, learning to tie knots, etc. There was the girly stuff and the outdoorsy stuff too...
i think that alot of little girls and young ladies spend too much time inside watching tv and not enough time making lifelong friends and learning things they will carry with them in life,
so looking back on my experiences i realized i might be able to make a difference for some young girls as well..

i plan on making events that tailor to everyone's interest...this is of course if i pass the interview...im very excited!!!

ill be sure to keep all that you said in mind...THANKS!!!
