Girl Scout Troop 4282 visited the new Cedar Springs Community Library on May 20 and donated several boxes of Girl Scout cookies to their local heroes—staff at the library!

I said, “Do you mean us??” remarked Library Director Donna Clark, who was tickled pink by the gesture.

The girls who dropped off the cookies were Trinity Besmer, Haley McDonald, Lindsey Washington, Ashlin Kreft, Lily Scott, Katie Porter, and Katie McDonald.

Local Girl Scouts help Paws with a Cause.

The local Girl Scout troop 4482 recently had a visit from Paws with a Cause.

They met Casey, a golden retriever, and Casey’s trainer, Sandee, talked to the girls about the program and all the benefits of the program for those who are in need of a Paws Dog. The girls asked lots of questions and got lots of answers,  including how much it costs to raise a Paws dog—$30,000!

At the end of all the questions, Casey was happy to let the girls pet him. Then the troop presented a check to Casey and Sandee, donating a percentage of their hard earned cookie money to Paws with a Cause.

Girls from the Girl Scout Troop 4282 were awarded Good Citizenship certificates by the Village of Sand Lake on August 30, for being good stewards of Salisbury Park.

According to Judy Howard, Clerk of the Village of Sand Lake, the troop picked up trash that littered the park. Howard presented the certificates to the girls.
