Valuable lessons I learned from my Girl Scout Troop

Candy bars do melt if you put them in a hot van
Glow necklaces can shoot clear across a cabin ceiling and still stay in one peice
10pm is never bedtime even thou it is lights out
Racoons will eat pork and beans if left by a fire outside after dark
If it isn't covered it will be the one place to get paint on it when you least expect it
Ice cream sticks will fit inside a selt belt buckle and never come out again
Fireplace dampers do have to be open or the cabin fills with smoke
Don't assume all scouts know what smoke is or what to do in the event of it filling the cabin
A first aid kit is often required more for the leader than for the scouts
Boys are still icky ( thank the heavens above ) and bratz dolls are still cool
If it says RSVP don't call, if it doesn't then that means call at least once to make sure
Always sleep by the fire exit, never close both your eyes
Always place a towel in the bathroom unless you want to hear the hand dryer all night long
Marshmellow sticks can become a dangerous weapon when flaming on the end
Always carry hair ties in your pocket
Never leave home without bug spray and sunscreen preferably in that order
The trail is always longer on the way back than on the way there
Hills become larger on the way home
Last but certainly not least for this post sing at the top of your lungs even if you are not in the shower or in tune!!!
