Gold Award Project
–
Elizabeth M. is working on her Gold Award project and can use your
help….either
with the project or by letting her know who may have some of the
history she is
looking for. Below is her project and contact information.
"My name is Elizabeth M. and I
have been a Girl Scout for 11 years. This year I
am attempting to complete my Girl Scout Gold Award. For my project I am
going
to document the history of Wayzata Schools. I have attend the Wayzata
School
district all 11 years of my education and have always wondered what the
history
of it was. When I went to look for information I did not find anything,
and I
decided to make that my project.
For my project I am going to
collect pictures and interview people that have
lived here and seen the district grow, or have been a part of it. I am
then
going to reach out to the community around me to help put all of these
memories
into scrapbooks so that our community will always have
a documented history. My plan is to have a book for each
school in
the district and in order to do that I am reaching out to the Girl
Scout troops
along with writing clubs and tech clubs from each school. I am
able to
come to a meeting with computers and scanners and teach the kids how to
scan in
pictures, scrapbook online and take important parts of our community's
history.
However, before the project can fully take off I need pictures, stories
and
memories from the schools. If you have any interest in helping
with my
project, either by helping me document or if you know where I could
find
pictures and stories please contact me. My email and phone number are
below!
All the help you can offer is great!
Thank
you,
Elizabeth

- Troops to
Troops - Silver Award Project Help military troops overseas by
creating military care packages!
Kia and Amelia are working on
their Silver Award Project and your troop can be involved! Kia
and Amelia have a list of items and if leaders would like (and
their schedule allows) they will
come to a troop meeting and work with the girls on this
project. Your troop will decorate a
flat rate
boxes from the post office and fill them with items needed/wanted by
the
military personnel overseas. Amelia and Kia are
happy to pay for the shipping of your boxes as their project includes
fundraising for that purpose. However, if you would like to ship your
care
packages yourself you are welcomed to do so. This activity is
only one part of their project as they are also reaching out to the
public.
If you are interested please send them an e-mail.
- Kristin R. earned her Girl
Scout Gold Award by collecing costumes that she handed out to
children whose families cannot afford
to purchase them. They were given to families at two different
apartment complexes here in Plymouth.
- Karina S. earned her Silver Award by holding a
food drive and producing a brochure on how to hold a food
drive to be used by other troops. (The brochure might take a while to
open, but it's worth it!)
- Girls from Troop 11163 (Britta M., Michelle R.,
Nicole H., Chelsea K. and Kirsten B. of Plymouth) all earned their Girl
Scout Gold Awards and were honored at a ceremony August 7, 2008, at the
community room at Lunds in Plymouth. Read more
about their accomplishments!
