back to scouts

I recently made a list of everything that they have done this year... it's a lot of service and program aide work! Every event we've tried to have with either the SU or council where they weren't working, has fallen through. The mall lockin was canceled. Kalahari they didn't want since it included boys (no leader for the lockin either) We've had 2 campouts but both were working camps no just having fun the whole time. Really the Wizard of Oz has been the only real for FUN only activity these girls have had all year.
I'm pushing them to go to hershey, PA this June for a camp-o-ree. It's 6 hours away, most of these girls haven't been more then 1/2 hour from home, but I really think that they'll have a great time! AM I nuts? We're talking on the ground tents and campfire cooking.

Oh and I'm really, really hoping that the other troop that our is level decide to come and join us and that we do get to go to this camp-o-ree. I think it would be a great way for the girls to hangout and have fun!!

The problem that I see... what do we do if the girls just won't go that far from home? I really don't want to do Cedar Point since it is so close to home. I wanted to get the girls out somewhere they hadn't been or was at least a full tank of gas in each direction. Any ideas? Oh and it has to be FUN!!
