As Marc's last post said, Leah earned her silver award this year. She worked with another scout in her troop to create a portable signboard for one of the local Girl Scout camps here. It turned out to be a big project for us to focus on during the pandemic. The girls worked over the phone, google chats, and video calls as well as wore masks and social distanced to get the project done and delivered before the deadline.
Her troop also had a bridging ceremony at the end of summer where she went from cadette to senior scout now that she's in high school. Leah did her nails for the occasion.
Back to the silver project. I actually managed to get Marc in one of the pictures helping out supervising the building of the signboard roof.
Here is the finished signboard that had to be transported in 2 vans & the girls put together on site.
Her troop leader surprised us by giving her the silver award at a fall outing to work on their first journey they need to complete for their gold award.
I was able to pin it on Leah's vest for her. I also was outdoor chef that day cooking burgers & dogs on the charcoal grill at the park we were at that day.
Hope everyone enjoys this peek into some of our scout activities!
