I wanted to learn outdoor skills so bad. We did learn a bunch of things in Girl Scouts, but a lot of our time was spent preparing for and then selling cookies.

I was so upset as a kid when my best friend was able to join the Boy Scouts but all I got was Girl Scouts doing arts and crafts. Quit almost immediately.
I loved being part of the Boys Scouts of America. Great experience all around and went all the way to Eagle Scout. Like lots of big organizations it all depends on the local chapter and has some issue through the system. Hopefully the name change gives a chance for it to get better.
