Troop 577 members Stella from Hewitt-Trussville Middle School and Emily, homeschooled through Cahaba Academy, recently earned the Girl Scout Silver Award for their project Operation Lovelady Kids. They gathered donations to update the children’s area of the Lovelady Center. Through a donation drive within their troop, they were able to obtain paint, furniture, toys and books for the organization. They also updated the center’s library and preschool lunch room.
The Girl Scout Silver Award is the highest award a Girl Scout Cadette (grades 6-8) 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.
