Junior Girl Scout Troop 30764 created and promoted their Bronze Award project entitled "Walk and Roll to School on Wednesdays" for Camino Pablo Elementary School to encourage exercise, reduce carbon footprints and traffic congestion, and to encourage community building.

They designed materials to advertise their project, and presented information to students and staff, educating them about walking or riding their bikes to school on Wednesdays. The girls formed groups around the neighborhood so that children could walk or ride their bikes to school together. They also created a kit and presented it to the principal, so that the school can continue the program for years to come.
