Re: Girl Scouts
It's possible that the school could be held liable for such injuries but more facts would be needed in order to provide anything even approaching an informed opinion.
One obvious question would be whether the person
in charge of the scout troop signed a waiver absolving the school of responsibility for these kinds of injuries?
