Girl Scouts volunteer at Alzheimer’s Walk
For the 3rd year in a row, Girl Scout Cadette Troop #50250
volunteered at the Walk to End Alzheimer’s in Oberlin on Sat-
urday, September 22. The troop, which is made up of ten 7th
graders representing Keystone, Firelands and Olmsted Falls,
led activities in the Kid Zone, including painting nails, mak-
ing flower crafts, playing with Play-Doh, drawing with side-
walk chalk and facilitating a number of games.
Most of the girls in this troop have participated in Girl
Scouts since kindergarten. They are taking their first troop trip
next weekend to Niagara Falls, a trip that was largely funded
by setting and achieving ambitious cookies sales goals last
spring. The trip is a mother-daughter trip, planned by the girls
and activities planned include not only sightseeing opportu-
nities like “The Maid of the Mist” and “The Cave of Winds”,
but also team-building and leadership activities, planned by
the girls. The girls meet once a month and work together to
volunteer their time with local organizations every couple
months, including Autism Speaks, Oberlin Community Ser-
vices, Friendship APL and Family Promise of Lorain County.
This year they are partnering with the cause Sleep in Heav-
enly Peace, a local group of volunteers dedicated to building,
assembling and delivering top-notch bunk beds to children Troop #50250 (L-R): Hannah Holcepl, Hailey Hilton, Maggie Miller, Sabrina Dulay, Kailey Zacovic, Lindsey Wade,
