The Camper Badge Marisol had been in Girl Scouts for five years, and she only needed one more badge to complete her scouts uniform. She had put off the camping challenge required to obtain the Camper Badge because sleeping outside in the woods sounded terrible, but the time had come, and Marisol couldn't put it off any longer.
Her parents began packing everything for their weekend camping trip the day before. Their living room was piled with sleeping bags, a tent, coolers, flashlights, and backpacks. Marisol's mother asked her to gather the sunscreen, bug spray, and extra batteries while her dad dug for a lantern and the hotdog skewers. It seemed like an awful lot to pack for one weekend.
Early the next morning, they loaded the car and began their hour-long drive to the campsite. While gazing out the window, Marisol began to think about her Camper Badge. In order to receive her badge, Marisol had to build a fire, sleep overnight in a tent, navigate the campsite using a compass, and draw a map of the area, so as soon as they arrived, she took out her drawing supplies. Once her map was complete with major landmarks including the river, two large trees, a picnic table, and fire pit, she dug around in her bag for her compass. Surprisingly, the compass ended up being quite simple and fun to use.
Marisol began feeling anxious as she noticed the sun starting to set and the sky becoming darker and darker. Working together, Marisol and her mom started a campfire and began roasting hotdogs and marshmallows. Cooking over a fire was fun and tasty, but then it was time to settle into the tent for the night. Marisol couldn't stop thinking about the sounds of the woods and darkness; surely, she wouldn't sleep at all.
Marisol woke to the sound of her father stoking the fire as he stacked rocks and placed a skillet full of pancakes on top. She was surprised at how fast she had fallen asleep the night before. The weekend turned out to be better than she anticipated, and Marisol couldn't wait to plan their next camping trip. What is the best summary of the passage?
