Read what some participants said about the 2009 Weekend at Camp Whispering Pines:

“I enjoyed it so much, I wish I could be at camp every weekend. There is something about Girl Scouts that just makes you feel at home, no matter where or who you are with. It truly is a family. I really enjoyed getting to know everyone. Opened my eyes to many new ways and experiences with Girl Scouts as an adult/alumnae.”

 

“I'm so glad I went.  It was hard to get away even for the day.  I can't wait to use my new training.  I met new people and have new ideas for my troop.  It was encouraging to see so many involved leaders.”

 

“I had a wonderful time. This is my first year as a leader and although I was a Girl Scout when I was younger, this weekend refreshed my memory or introduced traditions, and all kinds of stuff that I didn't realize I was forgetting. It was certainly a memorable weekend and I look forward to attending next year!!!”
