AMEN! My husband has been saying all along that it is the money... So, how do we all get together and protest the program? What do we all do now? A few letters in the mail from me and the girls in my troop won't do the trick - what can we do to make national listen to us?

I think it will flop eventually, too. But concerning your reply from national - I don't believe them. We have heard too many things "under the table" from people at our own council who have attended national trainings. I think that national is giving us a line about the fact that studio 2B is NOT replacing the interest projects, etc. I think they're outright lying.

No, it would be splintering off from GSUSA all together. That has actually been discussed in my neck of the woods. The girls in my senior troop think that Studio 2B is the most ridiculous thing they have ever seen. Charms instead of badges? Like was said earlier, if an organization tries to change in order to satisfy people who aren't even a part of the organization, it is in serious trouble. The girls who are in seniors now are there because they liked the program and wanted to stay. The girls who were polled were not in scouts and probably won't become scouts even now that Studio 2B ha
