dadfly,
Having been a Girl Scout myself (1st grade through the 10th grade) and then a scout leader for my daughter’s troop and even being awarded my local council’s “leader of the year” award one year.... it saddened me to read how the organization’s reputation is now drug though the mud.

I can guarantee you that there are thousands of leaders out there carrying out wonderful programs for their “girls” and upholding the traditional values of scouting and ignoring this “new agenda.”

Knowing this, I want to think that deep down there is some remnant of the old traditional values left in the program, though looking only at the council level one would not think so. Reading what you wrote was like “sunshine”. It was well said and I thank you.

A simple yes/no would suffice for me:

Does the GS org allow lesbians to be leaders?
