Hello!
My name is Tina. I'm a Cadette Girl Scout and I've been in Girl Scouts
for almost 10 years. I've been through all the levels: Daisies, Brownies,
Juniors, Cadettes and next year Seniors.
I think that I have learned a lot from my experiences in Girl Scouting. It has given me so many different opportunities that isn't offered anywhere else or taught as well. Girl
Scouting in general has helped me grow up, mature, be organized and have
fun. I've made so many friends, it's unbelievable. Camping is probably
the best part of Girl Scouts, although planning it is a hassle but is all
works out in the end. Some of my fondest memories was of the first year I attended resident camp. Three other girls and I from my troop attended resident camp up at Azalea Trails for a week
with me.We slept under the stars, hiked, learned about horses, learned
archery skills and much more. This is also where I developed a special
friendship with a sister Girl Scout from Visalia the second time i went
to camp there. To this day we still spend a week with one another and stay
in contact via US mail and email.
As a Cadette I have currently earned my Leadership pin, PA patch , several
Interest Projects and as a troop we are working on our silver award
together.
I have so many memories of my 10 years in scouting, my mom and I have put
together four photo albums, almost 5, of all the events we have participated
in. I also have hundreds of patches and swaps.
Over all, the best part of girl scouting for me was having my mom there
with me through it all. As a Leader, Mother, and friend.
Happy Scouting to you all !!!
