Congratulations to 15 Girl Scouts of Troop 60727 in Spencerport, who recently earned The Girl Scout Silver Award. The Silver Award is the highest award for Cadette Scouts and requires the scout to select a take-action project that helps the community. They then each spend a minimum of 50 hours toward solving and implementing their project to better serve the community. The following girls earned their award and pin during a ceremony to mark the occasion.
The girls listed below and their project:
Maggie Bracken, Emma Savino and Allison Priester: GRASP Animal Rescue. The girls assisted in construction of items for the program.
Addison Glozer, Aleigha Binko, Maya Voelkl and JamieLynn Gallagher: Open Door Mission Gates Women and Children’s Transitional housing.

Finally, they created a large scale mural for the center.
