We followed up our camp theme contest with another camp-related question: What do you think the new lodge at Camp Piperwood should be called?

After reviewing more than 100 entries, we selected Friendship Circle Lodge, suggested by volunteer Jody Brege!

Congratulations to Jody for her excellent suggestion!

Friendship Circles have a long tradition in Girl Scouts because they represent the unbroken bond of friendship we share. We stand in a circle, crossing our right arms over our left and clasp hands with our friends on both sides. A friendship squeeze is then passed around as we all make a silent friendship wish.

By naming our lodge after this tradition, we’re continuing to celebrate friendship at our camps and among our girls.
