“…impossible to describe.”
14-year-old Anna ended her course last week with this statement. She and six other troop members from Girl Scout Troop #2122 completed an eight-day course last week after their troop leader, Jennifer York, had a plan to bring her Girl Scouts to Costa Rica for an exciting cultural experience. After one week of hiking, rappelling, rafting, cooking, service, and zip-lining; they had some very positive things to say:
