Kalae 10 Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 -waves- I am not an adult Scouter, but in fact, a very active Venturer. (Out of the five members of my family, all members are active, registered BSA members.) I head an all-female crew, I volunteer and staff many camps, and I'm trying to get my Gold award by my seventeenth birthday. So I have no life outside of Scouting. ha ha.

shortridge 184 Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Welcome! Is that the Venturing Gold Award or the Girl Scouts' Gold Award? (Someone needs to pick a different name, I tell ya... ;-) ) Out of curiosity, what's your crew's specialty, and what camp program areas do you staff? Link to post Share on other sites
Kalae 10 Posted January 20, 2009 Author Share Posted January 20, 2009 oh, definitely the Venturing Gold award. I've never been a girl scout. Our crew doesn't necessarily have a specialty, per se. We originally started out with an arts/religious emphasis, but we slowly evolved into a service/outdoor emphasis. I staff at the camps within my own council, Sam Houston Area Council (SHAC). We have two or three camps within or immediately close to the council, and one further west. Link to post Share on other sites
shortridge 184 Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Sorry... I meant at what areas at camp do you work - aquatics, outdoors skills, shooting sports, etc. Link to post Share on other sites
Kalae 10 Posted January 21, 2009 Author Share Posted January 21, 2009 It varies. I have experience with sound equipment, so I'm a tech monkey for flag ceremonies, skit nights, and such, and I've served a term or two in the trading post. I do cook crew (the neverending curse of a Culinary student...I will NO LONGER put it on an application.). I don't get to do actual merit badge-esque stuff till this summer. -laughs- Link to post Share on other sites
