Troop 5122 Visits the Community Garden
Girl Scout Troop 5122 visited the garden today to learn about gardening. They earned their Junior Gardener badge. They also learned about composting and made their own kitchen compost containers. By doing their part to help the environment they were also able to both complete their Journey Take Action Project and earn a special Reduce, Reuse, Recycle patch from CVWMA. The troop is thankful to the Community Garden for letting them visit and helping them earn their badge. 
Rest In Peace, Shirley Beale
One of the saddest events in Girl Scouting is to hear of the passing of a sister Girl Scout. The Girl Scouts of the Commonwealth of Virginia family has learned of the death of Mrs. Shirley Beale from the Midtown Service Unit and would like to express our sincerest sympathies to the family at this difficult time. We are so grateful for her service, devotion, influence and efforts. She helped the organization move forward in great strides, and her efforts and contributions will never be forgotten. Shirley would have earned her 50 year pin in 2016.
