Cadette Girl Scouts Honor Veterans

Cadette-Girl-Scouts-Honor-Veterans-2017On Saturday, November 11, Cadette Girl Scout Troop 163 of Valparaiso sang at the American Legion Post 94 Veteran’s Day ceremony. Led by their leader, Dena Lawley-Dixon Troop 163 has sung at this same event for 7 years, starting when they were Brownie Girl Scouts. This year the Girl Scouts honored the gathered veterans by singing a medley of songs representing each of the 5 branches of the United States military. They finished their presentation by leading everyone in singing “God Bless America.” The attached photo shows, left to right, Angela Mathews, Leah Ribordy, Leader Dena Lawley-Dixon, Post Commander Tim Olson, Audrey Barriball, and Gabi LaBelle.

There are many young girls in the Valparaiso area who would like to join Girl Scouts but have no leaders. Adult volunteers who would like to be leaders or co-leaders please contact Beth Baker (464-2418) or email inquiries to SU12GirlScouts@yahoo.com.
