By Kayleigh DiNatale, Staff Reporter

DECICCO’S – During a playdate, Girl Scout leaders Ellen Sample and Karry Walsh noticed people were throwing bottles everywhere but the trash. They saw an opportunity to help the school be neat and clean and decided to have Girl Scout Troop 1655 pick up bottles for recycling.

The playdate was Sept. 15 and the recycling happened at DeCicco’s Family Market on Oct. 20.

The money the Girl Scouts collected will go towards scout parties and event supplies. For doing it, the Girl Scouts will get a badge.
