Well, I was a junior leader in Guides (Girl Guides = Girl Scouts) for a while. It was just cause my mother was a leader.
I went through until I got to Pathfinder, then I just dropped it. Dunno why, just did. Had something to do with the endless crafts, I think.
But good job for you, eh? Let us know how it goes

I'm very excited about this whole thing, I think it's a good thing to share some of my time with little girls who are going to grow up in this strange and violent world. Maybe they will live long enough to enjoy it, and even become productive members of society.
If you were a man wantng to hang out with ypung boys I'd wonder about you
What about Cub Scout and Boy Scouts? Is that bad?
Oh and the rule is 2 adults at all time, and can never leave a little girl with a Male alone,,,,that was some good advise, given my profession....huh?

Yes, they stressed the importance of teamwork and everyone pulling their own weight, in my case that would be a mighty pull.....he, he.

I read how they are having an international group WAGGGS or something like that to include meetings with Girl Guides and Girl Scouts in every country. I may need your help on a question or two if I need, are you good with that?

Do you guys have Sparks down there (before Brownies)? I'm just curious, cause I can't remember how the systems differentiate, if at all.

I was a Girl Scout when I was younger. I really enjoyed it. Just don't volunteer to be a 'Cookie Mom' unless you've got some will power ... LOL. My Mom was Cookie Mom one year, and she ended up having to buy extra boxes that we ate.

They call them Daisys here. When I was a Brownie...in the 1970's (shut-up!), they did not exist. It was Brownies, Girl Scouts, and then I don't know. Now it's Daisys, Brownies, Junior Girl Scouts, Cadets/Senior Girl Scouts.

That's funny you should say that, the instructor said the same thing, she said get one of the parents to be the Cookie Mom (they call them Cookie Master, or something like that now). I can't, no place to put them..so I'm lucky.

Hmm. That's different. Up here, it's Sparks, Brownies, Guides, Pathfinders, Junior Leaders, Senior Leaders (it's basically a course) and then a full blown leader, if you choose.

As Shouse said our daughter was in the scouts.And it was alot of fun but alot of work to.Her instructors just wanted somebody else to do the work.And of course they would take whatever money we collected through sales.
But, its alot of fun if u have good instructors,and people do their jobs.Its a chance for kids who never get to go anywhere,and who don't have brothers and sisters to belong to something,and get to have fun.

This is the first time in many months I have heard of the famous tutu. Can the great spanking be far behind.

Well you have it half right, it is behind! How far the spanking is away I cannot say. A tutu ages like a great wine. We say timber, not pine..

I was an Eagle Scout in boyscots for awhile myself, my best areas were swimming and canoeing. Oh hey! Colleen, almost forgot, I'm getting my Bioptic Drivers License! I got my lerners permit now, and have been taking drivers training since September 2005. I should have my drivers license by August. When I do, I'm going to volinteer my time too. Not sure how right now, I was hoping to sign up for "Big Brothers/Big Sisters" but I haven't decided yet which organization to sign up for yet. pretty cool eh? A visually impared licensed driver! ahhh!! hehe!

Until the backstage stuff kicks you...my mother quit Guiding cause the people in charge of the council or whatever were being idiots and gave her unorganized books (she was the treasurer) + expecting her to do the job of 3 people (all when it was tax season and she had her tax rep job too). At that point, she wasn't having any fun so she quit. It's a shame, cause she loved it

yeah, now if I could only get financial aid, and get a REAL job I'd be happy. I don't know, driving will open up alot of doors for me though, I was offered a job once taking care of disabled adults at the Cardinal Center (helping them get dressed and off to work, cooking for them, etc) a houseparent basically, but they told me in the interview I needed a valid drivers license  so I'm hoping in August I'll be able to get that job.
