I tried to join the Girl Scouts and did some similar group activities through 4H. I wanted to learn about fire and camping, and after a session of gluing plastic rhinestones to cups or something and then the promise of learning how to do my hair I quit. How boring & frustrating, and not at all what I'd read about in my mom's Girl Scout Handbook. It was full of information on trail signs and semaphore and how to build a fire and waterproof your tent and Morse code and knots.
