the limited experience i have with girl scouts is rose's friend in 2nd grade was a scout and they wanted rose to join. my mom happened to be in town and we went to the meeting at the leaders house; they said leave and be back in 3 hours. we sat in the living room and talked the whole time - they were visibly annoyed. lmao. that was the only time other than cookie sales we did and i bought tons of cookies so we could leave early.
