with a troop of 40-50 boys - I’m glad we didn’t take the girls

I’ll keep my purist perspective, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with keeping boys and girls separated. Girl Scouts should/shouldve worked on improving their program.

Our troop made the decision that we didn't want to attempt to start a girl chapter. We've never really had a high demand for one within our troop, so it was an easy decision for us, but I'm more than happy that there are troops that have thriving B & G troops.

I do think it makes summer camps a little more 'interesting', especially for the counselors/staff. Our local camp has male and female staff cabins across the reservation from each other...for what it's worth

But do the girls become the collateral damage due to the cookie cartel?

Our troop is 200+ and managing the separate girl troop was not as hard as you think.
