V. 5 is a collection of essential camp classics. These playful camp songs span from the joyful, to the thoughtful life of camping including hiking, campfire sing-alongs and lights-out. It includes the 90th Anniversary Theme for Girl Scouts of the USA, Every Girl, Everywhere. From Melinda Caroll …” Camping is as inherent to Girl Scouting as singing and making new friends and we all sing and make new friends at camp! It's the place where new stories begin and memories are made, and a song is usually there to carry those special moments. There are songs for every activity at camp whether we're hiking, singing grace, circling the campfire, cleaning the dishes, and before and after lights out! This album, is devoted to the loveable, entertaining pure fun of camping and those sweet moments and memories! As with all our albums, we encourage you to use this song collection as a teaching tool and learning resource. Our music carries a precious thread of inspiration and magic that entwines us together. May these songs bring you many joyful campfire memories! Our Girl Scout music and our message was sung by hundreds of thousands of girls, Leaders and Girl Scout families during our 90th Anniversary Celebrations across the Nation this year of 2002. New ground has been paved for the way Girl Scouts now gather and sing with digital downloads on their phones! We are experiencing a delightful resurgence of song and sisterhood! This album is dedicated to the Peace we all wish for our planet. From the voices of Every Girl, Everywhere, worldwide, a song may make it so! It will brighten your road, it will lighten your load, If you Sing Your Way Home.” Produced by: Melinda Caroll Engineering & Co-Artistic Director: David Kauahikaua Mastered by: Kit Ebersbach, Pacific Music Productions Arrangements: Melinda Caroll & David Kauahikaua Musicians: David Kauahikaua - keyboards, synth programming, recorder flutes, & percussion.
