If it was about Girl Scouts not having Eagle, they could start their own comparable program.


They do, the Gold Award.

The problem, as my FIL put it, is that the Girl Scouts don’t really do the outdoorsy/camping thing the boys do because not a lot of the leaders like doing it, but some girls do like the camping, or have fathers that would prefer they learn something useful

This is correct. Girl Scouts focuses more on entrepreneurship. My soon to be 9yr.old is a Girl Scout and a Cub Scout.

the girl scouts’ biggest problem was not being family friendly

I was a leader for 6 years and I could never take my younger kids with me and my husband had to camp on the other side of the campground
