Girl Scout Troop 30067 members Hannah Bogard, Anne Kearney Patton, Anna Ray and Hannah White, eighth-graders at Pizitz Middle School recently earned the Girl Scout Silver Award for their project Garden of Imagination and Fort Campsite at Aldridge Gardens.
The girls were concerned that children did not have safe areas to play, so they created a Garden of Imagination for girls and Fort Campsite for boys at Aldridge Gardens. They cleaned up an unused area by removing weeds and designating a path to the area. The girls also built forts, made signs, collected bins for storage and built a pretend fire pit. Their focus was to show children how to have fun outdoors, use their imagination and learn to keep the gardens clean.
The girls learned communication and leadership skills, as well as responsibility and teamwork.
