Anyone out there have any Girl Scout / aviation stories or experiences?

At our airport, again over the years, I've seen Boy Scout groups around but no Girl Scouts. Maybe they've been around
and I missed them?

It is in the Girl Scout manual that the girls are NOT permitted to fly in private planes -- period, end of story.

Mary took this ridiculous rule to the highest levels of Girl Scouting, and was rebuffed at every level. They just
regard it as a recklessly dangerous activity, and will not allow it to be done under their auspices.

Which is one major reason why Mary has disbanded her Girl Scout troop/den/whatever this year.

Hmmm, we had many, many Girl Scouts show up at the Young Eagles rally here a while back. There is a aviation (or
aerospace) badge they can get.
