Tomorrow night I will be camping with my Girl Scouts. Some are very young, some are a bit older but they are Juniors age. I asked the Jrs to come along because I feel they would be good role models for our younger girls.
Camping is more than an outdoor experience. That is one of the main reasons that troops go camping. In this case, I feel it will be a great bonding experience, a great way to interact with our Girl Scouts that they may not interact with on a regular basis.
Every camping trip, I may come back drained physically but the memories for each camping trip will last a lifetime. No 2 camping trips are the same: different locations, different weather, different times of the year, different girls and/or adults that come along. Even different activities.
With each camping trip, you see the girls blossom individually and they learn that they CAN survive without the full amenities of their home and with different girls and adults that they may not normally interact with.
I am truly looking forward to this camping trip. It should be loads of fun, and cross your fingers that the rain is minimal and that the sunshine is plenty!
All my love,
