“100 Years of Sisterhood!”

Join your friends old and new as we celebrate 100 Years of Girl Scouting traditions at camp. The days will be filled with activities such as lacing, nature, and outdoor skills including team building initiatives, orienteering, knot tying, fire building, and cooking over a campfire. In addition, older girls will challenge themselves with woodshop, canoeing, archery and have the option to spend the night at camp, while younger girls will make a craft, learn camp songs and swim.

Little kids blogging--not so scary after all!

Troops worked together on Friday, June 22,  to compose blogs sharing camp experiences from their past week at Deer Trails Girl Scout camp. As the 1990s station of a historical theme celebrating 100 years of Girl Scouts, I spoke with girls about internet as a tool with risk and responsibility, gave them internet safety/netiquette contracts to sign and take home, and then they collaborated on writing with help from their PAs/CITs and troop leaders. Afterwards, some scouts passed around and looked at pieces of an "old" computer that station CITs dissected for the day.

Thanks to everyone who helped make this station possible, including camp director Nan "Carmen" Delwiche who thought of the idea and got us all the laptops and supplies, our CITs Kathryn and Emily who, in addition to tearing apart the computer, helped the entire day running around, typing, and goodness knows what else, and all the parents and troop leaders who cooperated and gave great advice. Enjoy reading!
