Troop 232 Girl Scouts earn Bronze Award

The Junior Girl Scouts of Troop 232 recently earned their Bronze Award.

To earn the award, the girls raised more than $1000 and as a troop, picked a project to work on. They planned the items they wanted to purchase and make for a Lovelady Center room makeover. They shopped for the items and made custom throw pillows, hand painted wall hangings and handmade fabric bulletin boards. They spent more than six hours working on the room to make a complete transformation.

The Girl Scout Bronze Award is the highest award a Girl Scout Junior can earn. This award recognizes that a Girl Scout Junior has gained the leadership and planning skills required to follow through with a project that makes a positive difference in the community. This award must be approved by a troop leader or advisor. Each girl must have an individual leadership position, and it is suggested that they complete at least 20 leadership hours towards the project.
