My son and his wife took their daughters out of Girls Scouts when they started seeing and hearing things they just couldn't go along with. My neighbor took her daughters out for the same reason and put them in another group. Something like Campfire girls.

There is no Campfire "girls" anymore. It is "Campfire USA" now. This organization went pc a long time ago, I am sad to say. I was a Campfire girl way back when and had a great time.

Their website tells alot.
excerpt:

Camp Fire USA's programs are designed and implemented to reduce sex-role, racial and cultural stereotypes and to foster positive intercultural relationships.

Then they go on to tell you about the percentages of age, gender and ethnicity there are within the organization. (go figure...) The logo on the home page has the three words "integrity, responsiblity and tolerance" underneath. Guess which word is set in the largest font.
