h Our pack is going camping this weekend. But..if we weren't, we might look at going to GreenFest. It's sponsored by Tucson Botanical Gardens, the Girl Scouts, and Bookman's. Lots of good info on fun on greener living (all part of the front-country Leave No Trace, right?) Can help with the gardening requirements and ecology requirements for cub badges.
We're moving our campout to Roper Lake because Mt. Lemmon is just going to be too darned cold--briefly thought about moving it to Catalina State Park. If we did we could drop in on the Solar Potluck by Tucson Citizens for Solar!
Science, ecology, and nachos baked by the sun. What could be better?
Well..we're hoping that fishing, dissecting owl pellets, and marshmallows will come close!

Earth Day
Took the scouts to Earth Day
at Reid Park today. They had a good time. Did a little networking with Habitat for Humanity and the wastewater people--may have a hook-up there for a couple of activities. Just for future reference, this is the shortest parade ever, during a community event--so it makes a quick add for the kids' Citizenship Pin requirements, #8 and #10. It is very easy to also accomplish #9 (list ways you can recycle various materials and conserve and protect the environment.)
Just watch out for the guys who want to argue with the PETA people.
