Girl Scouts Turn 100!
Early in March we attended the Birthday Extravaganza for the Girl Scouts 100th birthday. My favorite part was seeing all the memorabilia from past decades, particularly the old Girl Scout and Girl Guide uniforms, patches, manuals, pins, and cookie box designs. Super cool to see all of that and get a sense of the history of the Girl Scouts. As a child of the 80s it was fun to wander through that booth and show my girls things they have never seen, but were everyday for me: records and record players, the old banana shaped phone with a cord attached to the wall, the old Apple Macintosh computer that was little bigger than a shoe box with a tiny black and white screen, and don't forget the jelly bracelets & shoes with the super sculpted hair sprayed within an inch of its' life. Good times.
