This was quite the adventure. Two adults versus twelve girls. Twelve-middle-school-just-discovering-the-art-of-sarcasm girls. I came home with a migraine. Good news . . . the girls thought it was a fabulous weekend. Bad news . . . the moms (including me) said we need more help next time!! Usually we do have more help, but most of our other co-leaders were getting camp training that weekend (which is fabulous!!) and we thought we could manage without. We did manage, but some of the newer girls tested my patience. Most of the girls who have been in the troop for years were awesome, on target, well behaved, etc.
In the end, the weather was awesome, and the activities were fun. The girls had a great campfire that night and sang camp songs for hours. We even learned several new ones! And Madie and I got a picture of ourselves before we even left camp. Camping with the girls is a lot of fun and it really teaches some life skills that I am often too scared to let them learn at home (cooking). So sign us up, we are going again in the next few months!
