Troop 512 Earns Silver Award


Troop 512 members Kaitlyn, Hannah, Kelley and Sklyer from Oak Mountain Middle School and Mikyla from Thompson Middle School recently earned their Girl Scout Silver Award for their project with Barrett Elementary School in Eastlake. With the money raised through the Girl Scout Fall Product Sale and the Girl Scout Cookie Program, the girls were able to repair a girls’ bathroom at the elementary school by giving the walls a fresh coat of paint and hanging new stall doors.

The Girl Scout Silver Award is the highest award a Girl Scout Cadette can earn. This award symbolizes a Girl Scout Cadette's accomplishments in Girl Scouting and community activities as she matures and works to better her life and the lives of others.
