My sister (also a KD) is a Daisy Troop Leader because her daughter is in the troop. Actually, they have moved up to Brownies now (1st grade)..seems like there's more of a commitment, but my sister is a fulltime mom.
One of the things that my sister has done is DELEGATE. She made at least 3 other mothers commit to be "co-leaders" and yet another mother is in charge of arranging the snacks (which is rotated among all the moms).
It's a lot of effort, but worth it!
BTW, there are probably some Yahoogroups or other listservs for troop leaders - you might want to look into that.
Good luck!
