Digital item: Brownies Scout belt of Nina Pantelić
Donor of digital item: Nina Pantelić*
Note from Donor:
Like many kids that grew up in the 90’s a part of my childhood was spent overseas, namely Tallahassee, Florida. From 1992 – 93, along with my sister Ana, I was a member of the Brownies, one level down from the famous Girl Scouts. The thing I remember most vividly is of our first night on the camp – tents, sleeping bags, singing around the campfire while in the distance listening to the howl of a coyote. This belt is part of the uniform I wore.
