Watauga Girl Scouts Receive Bronze Awards
Ten Watauga County Girl Scouts recently received The Girl Scout Bronze Award, the highest honor a Junior Girl Scout can earn. The Bronze Award has four requirements. To receive the award, a Junior Girl Scout must complete the first three before undertaking the Bronze Award project.
The Bronze Award project demonstrates the leadership skills she has learned as a Junior Girl Scout and a commitment to her community. The project must show she understands and lives by the Girl Scout Promise and Law. The project should take about 15 hours to complete, including planning time. Doing the project should take at least seven to eight hours. The project should also follow the Action Plan in the “Adventures in Girl Scouting” chapter of the Junior Girl Scout Handbook and provide community service inside or outside Girl Scouting.
Troop 004 of Blowing Rock made cancer caps to be donated to cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. The girls who received the Bronze Award from Troop 004 are Sydney Blair, Desiree Coffey, Rachel Norwood and Amelia Powers. Their leader is Lynn Norwood.
Troop 853 of Boone did their service project for the Watauga County Humane Society. The girls who received the Bronze Award from Troop 853 are Victoria Earp, Sidney Ginn, Hannah Reeves, Savanah Stone, Rose Wheeler and Maria Yarborough. Their leader is Marilou Wheeler.
