This is due to the Girl Scouts decision ten years ago to say “stay at home moms are bad role models, only have working moms as leaders”. Combine that with promoting Planned Parenthood content, and many stay at home / conservative / Christian mothers left to American Heritage Girls. These were the women with years of experience AND long-term commitments because they typically had several girls.

And they stopped doing the “fun” stuff like camping. Working moms do a craft day once in a while and the stress-relief badge at the spa.

the stuff like camping is what keep those over the age of 13 interested. you want kids to get leadership skills have them do real work. 50 years ago the girl scouts actualy baked the cookies that they sold and got a merit badge in the process. today they stand in front of a store and hawk over priced cookies for a corporation that actually makes more money from the deal then the girl scouts.. 4.99 for cookies that can be gotten for 2.00 dollar in the store they are standing in front of.
