Were you ever a girl scout or boy scout?

Question

I was but I quit after 5th grade I guss I just didnt like the girls in it. My cousins are in boy scouts weblo 1 I belive and they sell popcorn I was going to buy some but them they told me it was 29 dollers I said no thanks ill go to shoprite and buy some. But you know what stinks ever since they joind last year I have been on 2 camping trips both times I SET UP THE TENT they just ran around with their friends. I am not going on a camping trip with them ever again. What about you guys?

I know the cookies are awsome arn't they

They do more then camping but I did not go to thoes things for many reasons...

Answer 1

I was a Brownie Scout, and now I am a Cub Scout mom. My son is a Bear Scout, and I would not camp with him again if he refused to help set up the tent. My biggest problem is probably the popcorn sales, though. It's such a rip off. Girl Scout cookies sell themselves, but my kid is supposed to set a goal for himself and attempt to meet it by tricking grown ups into paying twenty to fifty dollars for a tin of popcorn...when everyone knows that Wal Mart is going to have a pyramid of variety popcorn tins for $4.99 set up by the front door within the month. Other than the popcorn sales, it's all right. We have fun camping, but he does have to help set up the tent and carry the stuff.

Answer 2

I was a boy scout, made Life Scout with 20 merit badges. Went to the 1953 Boy Scout Jamboree in Irvine, Ca. I lived in New Hampshire so had a great train trip in the old fashioned pullman cars. Camping in Ca was okay with me but the camping trips in New Hampshire really sucked. We slept on the ground and nights are always cool, sometimes cold in NH even in the summer. I agree that there is a ganging up and lack of mutual effort.

It was, all in all not really my style. I still go camping now, set up a tent but sleep in my van on a matress with regular pillows. Also I am in Arizona now and nights are much warmer.

Answer 3

Not me! The only Scouts from my family were my younger brother and sister (Twins) She was a Browne Scout and he was in Webelos (Between Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts) When we lived in Florida from Spring of 1969-Late Summer of 1970.

Answer 6

I was a brownie & girlscout in grade school, but after that it was pretty much frowned upon at my school. Only the nerds were in it still. None of my friends & I stuck it out.
I met a guy a few years ago who was still a scout of some sort & he's in his late 20's though.

I bought some popcorn from my friends son, gosh it's spendy, I tried to find the cheapest item on there.

Answer 10

I belonged to a Brownie troop, but when it was time for me to 'fly up' to Girl Scouts, the troop leader had quit, so that was the end of that song.
