Blogs in/badges out for modernizing Girl Scouts

Add comment March 2nd, 2009

The Girl Scouts are rebranding, and this msnbc.com story tells all about it, everything from de-emphasing getting badges to emphasizing blogging.

I was a Girl Scout and mostly liked the camping opportunities, which included getting in a fun-filled food fight with mashed potatoes during one overnight. I still remember some of the songs I learned: “Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree.” And “Don’t ever laugh when a hearse goes by.” Oh, yeah. And the cookie sales competitions. And generally, the good works we did.

Tell about your Girl Scout experiences. What do you think of the Girl Scout makeover?
