vintage Girl Scouts and Velma my beloveds !!

In One Episode Of The Scooby Doo Show, Velma Mentioned That She Knew Morse Code Beacuse She Was In Girl

In one episode of the Scooby Doo Show, Velma mentioned that she knew Morse code beacuse she was in girl scouts.... when I tell you I SCREAMED because I was ALSO in girl scouts (though I never learned morse code :/ ) and because two of my special interests are scooby doo and vintage fashion, but one of my, like, sub categories of special interests lol under vintage fashion is the history of girl scouts and vintage gs uniforms!! They were sososososoo cute and they changed with the fashion of the times <33 I own a 1939 junior uniform too! ANYWAYS this had to be created. The gang's ages aren't really specified and obviously they haven't aged over the years but since SD started 1969/1970, lets suppose Velma was a girl scout in the early to mid 60s. I put her in a senior uniform and tried to be as accurate as possible. yeah that's it!!!!

Camp Names:

So you’re spending the Summer at Camp, and your Camp uses “camp names”… Whether you’re a new CIT or a counselor, using a camp name can be hard to adjust to (even if you’ve been waiting for this moment for years)!

You need to learn to respond to a new name, write it on papers, and introduce yourself as such. The secret to (quickly) learning to identify with and respond to a new camp name?

Refer to yourself in the 3rd person!

Yep, it’s weird! And yes, it’s awkward! But it truly works like a charm. Narrate what you’re doing, answer questions in the 3rd person- use your name in 3rd person references liberally and then some.

“Sunshine is feeling great about high ropes!”

“Casper is going to go to clean up in here and then Casper will head to lunch.”

“Snappy is headed to the lodge!”

Help your new coworkers to get comfortable with their names: use their camp names liberally as well! Even if they are a returning staff member, using their name can help them get back into their camp persona (more on this later).

“Rhythm is good! How is Acorn today?”

“Meadow is going to the lake with Sketch, does Atlas want to join?”

“Has Comet seen Ponyo yet?”

This helps everyone to get into the flow of camp, and can speed up the adjustment process- don’t let camp culture shock get the best of you, embrace the weird new culture around you! But of course, speak up when you feel the new (or return!) counselor scaries set in. Whether it’s your first summer or seventh, the start of summer anxiety can get to you- talk to your fellow counselors and admin staff, and know you will do amazing things this Summer!

Kindred Spirits (lovers Of All Things Girl Scouts, Particularly Those Which Are Vintage), I Present To

Kindred spirits (lovers of all things Girl Scouts, particularly those which are vintage), I present to you my latest project:

Adding vintage badges to my ‘24 staff hoodie!

Each badge represents one week of my summer season, whether it be a lesson I learned or a reference to something that happened. I think I like the arrangement (all on the left sleeve) but I may change it… who knows! These are all from the 60’s!

Example- my third week is represented by the Campfire Cooking badge, because we had a (quite large) grease fire during cookout… not our finest moments but we survived!

me, to the kids i worked with last week: welcome to medieval camp everyone! can anyone think of any fun medieval activities we might do here at camp this week?

kid: well, they used to do this thing where they would take your body and make it into four pieces and i think it was called quartering.

me: that’s called torture! we will not in fact be participating in torture this week! …anyone else?

A lithograph of Girl Scout astronauts. Portraits of 33 women of various races and ethnicities curve around part of Earth (bottom left). On Earth are embossed words “doctors, educators, engineers, pilots, scientists.” At top left is the Moon, and at top right is the International Space Station. From left to right, bottom to top, the astronauts are Serena M. Auñón-Chancellor, Kayla Barron, Yvonne D. Cagle, Laurel B. Clark, Eileen M. Collins, Nancy J. Currie-Gregg, N. Jan Davis, Anna L. Fisher, Susan J. Helms, Joan E. Higginbotham, Kathryn P. Hire, Tamara E. Jernigan, Susan L. Kilrain, Christina H. Koch, Wendy B. Lawrence, Sandra H. Magnus, Nicole Aunapu Mann, Megan McArthur, Jessica U. Meir, Pamela A. Melroy, Dorothy M. Metcalf-Lindenburger, Barbara R. Morgan, Lisa M. Nowak, Loral O’Hara, Kathleen Rubins, M. Rhea Seddon, Heidemarie M. Stefanyshyn-Piper, Kathryn D. Sullivan, Kathryn C. Thornton, Janice E. Voss, Jessica Watkins, Mary Ellen Weber, and Sunita L. Williams.

It’s Girl Scout Day! March 12, 2024, is the 112th birthday of Girl Scouts in the United States, and to celebrate, we’re sharing a lithograph of the Girl Scout alumnae who became NASA astronauts.

Girl Scouts learn to work together, build community, embrace adventurousness and curiosity, and develop leadership skills—all of which come in handy as an astronaut. For example, former Scouts Christina Koch and Jessica Meir worked together to make history on Oct. 18, 2019, when they performed the first all-woman spacewalk.

Pam Melroy is one of only two women to command a space shuttle and became NASA’s deputy administrator on June 21, 2021.

Nicole Mann was the first Indigenous woman from NASA to go to space when she launched to the International Space Station on Oct. 5, 2022. Currently, Loral O’Hara is aboard the space station, conducting science experiments and research.

Participating in thoughtful activities in leadership and STEM in Girl Scouts has empowered and inspired generations of girls to explore space, and we can’t wait to meet the future generations who will venture to the Moon and beyond.

Do one thing every day that scares you.

Mary Schmich (1997 essay)

I think about this a lot. A lot of things scare me, but some things are worth being scared about and doing them anyway.

Finding which ones they are will be a lifelong pursuit.
