Scouting - a Movement that Matters!
I also was a Girl Scout leader and trainer for many years. My grandmother and my mother were both in Scouting.
Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts have been in the forefront of the Green movement for a long time.
Nowadays, both Girl and Boy Scouts are learning about how to help our nation and our world, one service project at a time.

- If I was younger I would have done this had I known about it. Everyone needs survival skills and team building!

- Great compilation! I was a Girl Scout, my sons were Scouts and I was a den mom. Scouting is definitely a great character builder, highly recommended for everyone! Lensrolling this lens to my Boy Scouts of America Postage Stamps lens.

I am Lizziebeth - and it's great to meet you!
Here is a little about me.
I was a Scout all the way to Seniors, and then Mariner Scouts.
I earned the First Class award, the highest Girl Scout honor at the time. Now this award is called the Gold Award (and in Boy Scouts, the Eagle Scout classification.)
I have been a leader and a trainer. My favorite Scouting activities are stargazing, crafts, camping, journalling, nature studying, singing, and doing plays.
