Outdoor Adventures

I've been a Girl Scout leader for 12+ years and this is the first Leadership Conference that I've attended. It's true you can teach an old dog new tricks. I'm going to recap the information that I learned today. Each session that I attended will have a post.

Why I signed up for the class
Growing up my family was not the the "outdoor" family. Outdoor adventures were going to an outdoor mall or a water park. My level of comfort of has increased over the years. I'm so grateful to have a great team of co-leaders and parents that joined us on our camping adventures. 
If you are interested in camping please plan months in advanced. Post in the Facebook if you need assistance.
