Hello All, I have just stumbbled accross this forum, and i have to tell ya some things. I myself work at a boy scout camp and im a female. I have worked there for 7 years now. I currently hold one of the most important positions in camp. I cant tell you how diffrent my life would have been if i hadn't followed in my brothers footsteps and joined camp staff. Girl scouts never had very much to offer me. All i ever wanted to do was camp. My first year i could have been no more nervous. But the guys at camp quickly accepted me and i had the best summer of my life. If i hadn't had that experiance my life today would be compleatly diffrent. I wouldn't have something to look forward to every summer, i wouldnt have freinds all over the state, and i wouldn't know what i want to do with my life. And yes, i agree, a girl in a boy scout camp does have a tendency to cause a few little problems, but being scouts you would be suprised of the outcome. I basicly grew up there in camp. And as every kid grows up and strives to find themself, girl or boy, they are gonna make a few bad judgement calls. But the way problems and situations at camp are handled have taught me a much greater lesson than any punisment my parents could have thought up. So, knowing a lot of you think its a bad decission to let girls on your staff, i beg you to think twice before you say no to that next little girl with the dream of following in her big brothers footsteps.
