Gross. One thing I heard from my parents as well as generally on the internet is that the Girl Scouts have waaaay less national support from the organization than Scouting America. As in, they have way fewer resources and can’t afford to provide a lot of support for individual troops. So I can’t say I’m surprised. Part of me thinks it’s a gendered issue; part of me thinks it’s because BSA/SA have Mormon support; maybe there are also some other factors. But it has always rubbed me the wrong way that Girl Scouts get shafted.
