Girl Scouts at camp in Warren County

WARREN COUNTY, Ky. – Day camp is going on for the Girl Scouts in Warren County, and everyone is having a great time.

News 40 went out to rough it for a bit with the Girl Scouts in the Warren County area and get some comments from camp leaders about the program.

Co-camp director Regina Pedigo vouched heavily for Girl Scouts, saying its a great program to empower young women and teach them various things, like responsibility, compassion and sisterhood.

Pedigo said it’s a great experience for girls, giving them a sense of independence and that that is a “very important thing to so many people, knowing that I can do it.”

Pedigo encouraged every girl between first and 12th grade to get out there with a troop and get involved, because you could make a lifelong friend and gain valuable skills.
