The Program itself is a learning
experience
                                   Why should troops participate in
                                   product programs?
Troops use money earned from
the program to go on fun           Why should girls and caregivers
adventures like travel and camp
                                   participate?

Troops use money earned to give    What is the value of this program to

      winter
  •   They face wind chills as cold as -76oF and blizzards of 124mph
      Four layers of scale-like feather protect them from icy winds and
                                                                              Penguins

      provide a waterproof coat
  •   Colonies of adults and chicks work together to huddle for warmth.
      5,000 or more tightly packed adults and chicks shuffle around, so
      each takes a turn - but not too long - on the outside of the huddle
      where it’s cold                                                         Fun Facts –
• The tallest and heaviest of all living penguin species,
  reaching an average 39 inches in length and can                                Ice, Ice
  weigh up to 88 pounds
  • Diet consists primarily of fish, krill, and squid

• Their aerodynamic bodies and strong flippers make
  them excellent swimmers, reaching speeds of 7.6
  mph
  •   They can dive deeper than any other bird – as deep as 565 m 1850
      ft - and they can stay under for more than 20 minutes
• A social animal, they will walk up to 75 miles each
  year to reach their colonial nesting areas
  •   Once an egg is laid, the male will care for the egg until hatched
      while the mother returns to the sea to hunt for food. This can last
      up to 2 months!

      called crèches while they leave to fish.

  breeding colonies by humans
