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!

One Tough Chick ... errrr ... M&M!
Our bright orange M&M darling volunteered for the personal safety demonstrations at staff meetings. Who knew she could be so tough? As our presenter said, he is making sure people everywhere are "armed and dangerous" but not with guns. We learned some interesting techniques (squeeze-squeeze, twist-twist-twist, pullllllll) and were able to get some serious liquid weaponry. I feel like a techno-zorro!
But seriously ... it made me think about safety and how much it is taken for granted. I'll have to start collecting information and kaboodling it to share!
