As a girl, I wanted to be a boy scout. My brother was... he got to go hiking and camping and cook outdoors and collect newspapers and play with a knife and a bow and arrow etc. etc. As a Girl Scout leader, I try to make sure that my girls have an opportunity to do all of those things.

There are over 317 Girl Scout Councils in the US. I am trying to collect a recipe from each one.

There is a group growing in Girl Scouting it's called the "Juliettes" individually registered girls. These tend to be from troops who have lost girls due to jobs etc as they get older.

DD, Thanks I feel more welcome now. A special spot just for the girls. I am sure the next Girl Scout to visit this site will be most appreciative. KoreaScouter, Thank you for forwarding link. I thought this would be a much easy project then it has turned out to be. Yarrow, Please submit your recipe for Mile HI. I do not have a recipe from there yet. I do appreciate the help. Buffalo2, I would say the way you get girls interested is to first expose them to it and grow their interest. Our troop of 1st year 4th grade Junior girl scouts have gone rock climbing.

I did say "SISTER" troop didn't I? Brothers and Sisters in Scouting? Troops who might meet in same building or at same school? Didn't mean to offend. Was my perfume too strong? LOL Laura

I am hoping there are troops out there with a sister Girl Scout Troop who might be able to help me. I am trying to collect a recipe from every Girl Scout Council in the USA. http://www.angelfire.com/in3/girlscoutsrfun/CouncilRecipe.html Above is link to my web page that shows the Councils I have received. There is also a link on this page for all Girl Scout COuncils the ones in black I still need a recipe from. Please help. Please forward this to a local troop of Council if you are aware of one. Your help is appreciated. Yours in Girl Scouting Laura Padgett
