Charlie Keohane, Jacqui Caulfield, Lynn Wolfe and Sophia Browne of Girl Scout troop 32787, recently completed their Silver Award. The girls, current eighth graders, raised money and purchased a new picnic table for the Stanley Middle School Special Education program. The table allows the students in the Special Education program to participate in outdoor activities, such as eating lunch, reading, and art. In addition, the students painted birdhouses which will decorate the surrounding greenery.

The Silver Award is the highest award a Cadette Girl Scout can earn. Each girl had to complete a minimum 50 hours of service toward the project. In order to raise the necessary funds, the scouts set up a booth at the Lafayette Earth Day Festival selling homemade crafts and painting faces. At the Lafayette Art and Wine Festival and the Happy Valley Harvest Day, the girls ran a face painting booth. In all, the girls raised $950 in order to buy the table.
