On October 23, 2010 we attending Brownies Have Skills at Camp Wistogoman. The girls learned about some of the skills Brownies need to have while camping. We took a hike through the woods and discussed how important it is to "leave no trace". We should leave nature just how it is, so others can enjoy it. The girls were also taught how to build a fire. This was demonstrated by making an edible fire out of marshmallows, pretzel sticks, and hot tamales. This was a fun activity for the girls. The last thing learned was knot tying. Each girl was given a rope and was taught how to tie different knots. It was confusing at first, but the scouts got the hang of it!
This was a very fun day out doors. The skills learned here will help the scouts earn the "Ready, Set, Go Camping" Try-It.
