Should you capitalize girl scout if you are referring to someone as being a girl scout?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes, and so should "Girl Scout".

In addition:

Girl Scout Brownie is a proper noun because it names a specific level of Girl Scouting, so yes, Brownie should be capitalized whenever referring to a Girl Scout Brownie.

Note: GSUSA changed the level names so that "Girl Scout" always comes first, so "Girl Scout Brownie" is the correct usage.

While high school cheerleading squads are female predominated- and there are many female-only squads- on co-ed squads more than half of the squad is usually compromised of guys. Sorry I couldn't answer better.

Should you graphite the wheel tread on a pinewood derby car?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Dry lubricant is the only allowable lube by standard BSA rules. Graphite is a dry lube and it will not dry out. Do not mix dry and wet lubricants. They will not work well together.

Although graphite does not dry out over time, it can in fact draw moisture from the air it is exposed to over time. This all depends on the humidity levels of the air that the car/graphite is being stored in. If the graphite draws moisture it will start to act like a paste and slow the car down by placing more friction on the axles. I always recommend re-graphiting your wheel just before any race.
