I don't know if being a Brownie for one year really counts as Girl Scout experience when all I can remember is a nature walk around a few city blocks and blowing a ping pong ball across a table until I was dizzy (addictive to a child like me)! My latest life experience is joining this amazing group in a professional capacity. My quest? I want to be part of the leadership journey in young girls' lives. NOW ... I am a Girl Scout!

Happy Birthday, Girl Scouts!
We are 95 years old today! I heard today that whenever Juliette "Daisy" Low (the founder) was speaking in front of a group, she always had her knife, pan, rope, and whistle (thanks to a wonderful character interacting with the girls at the party). And I learned that the whistles were to be used if someone was in trouble. Makes sense. I have a feeling my knowledge of knots wouldn't do me very well in the wilderness, though, so I'd probably be using my whistle a lot!
