    GS are just cookie dealers that sometimes go camping. Between my two kids each being one or both programs the GS spend 70% of their meetings and time together talking about and planning cookie sales. The Scouts go on twice as many camping trips and only fund raise around Christmas. But one kid whom is in the more camp group is in the richer areas troop meanwhile the GS is in the lower income area so they tend to just try to make money.

    My point in GS is for the kids you want to someday be in sales and the Scouts are for the kids who want to experience the outdoors.

      Girl Scouts is much more troop driven than boy scouts. It kind of sounds like your girl’s troop leader just isn’t very motivated.
