Girl Scout alumnae get a chance to 'camp like a girl'
Late night campfires and sing-a-longs. Early morning pajama breakfasts. Long summer days spent poolside, testing your aim at the archery range or learning a new skill, like canoeing, photography or horseback riding. This is what it means to "camp like a girl."
In late June, Girl Scout of San Jacinto Council alumnae revisited Camp Agnes Arnold and Camp Misty Meadows for their own chance to camp like a girl for a day.
