Local Girl Scout Receives Gold Award

Girl Scouts of CT

Girl Scout Ambassador, Erica Morey, recently completed her Gold Award. Her project was focused on the health of the community and the kids. Being healthy is an important aspect to living a good life and having fun. Erica promoted the importance of eating healthy and exercise through Healthy Fun classes, along with sharing a slideshow, “What’s on my plate” board and games. She made Get Well Bags for the Brookfield Social Services to distribute to kids who are sick with more than the common cold, and the kids that attended the classes decorated the bags. Erica also created a Healthy Living pamphlet to place in multiple locations throughout Brookfield and surrounding towns. In the end she completed 95 hours of community service.
