Since she was 5 years old, Corren Watson of New Berlin tagged along with her older brother, Kallen, first to his Cub Scout meetings and then to his Boy Scout meetings.
Even though she had begun on her own path by joining the Girl Scouts as a Daisy in kindergarten, Corren Watson still hoped membership for girls in the Boy Scouts would become a reality. It was really more of a hope because for so long the country was kind of against letting girls in, so I didn t figure it would actually happen, but I still wanted to be able to be a part of it somehow, some way, said Watson, a 15-year-old sophomore at New Berlin High School. People around me sometimes were thinking, girls already have this program over here. Why do they need this program over here, too?
