BIRMINGHAM, Ala. –January 23, 2015–Girl Scout Troop
122 members Caroline Kracke, Molly Russell, Campbell Swing, Derrin Upshaw,
Helen Walthall and Anna Kate Yeager, students at Cherokee Bend Elementary
School, recently earned the Girl Scout Bronze Award for their project “Teaching
Rainbow Loom @ the ‘Y’.”. The girls participated in a sisterhood project - they
shared a popular activity (making rainbow loom bracelets) with members of an
after school program. This inspired them to make something tangible while
having fun.
The Girl Scout Bronze Award is the highest
award a Girl Scout Junior (fourth and fifth grades) 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 her community.
