During Girl Scout Volunteer Week April 17-23, which includes Leader Appreciation Day on April 22, we honored the many outstanding volunteers and leaders in our community who make our world a better place by dedicating themselves to building girls of courage, confidence and character. Each gives selflessly her/his time to make Girl Scouting a meaningful and fun learning experience for girls. We thank you for all that you do! Lafayette Girl Scouts congratulates the recipients of Outstanding Volunteer Awards for 2011: Patti McGregor, Tiphanie Ortman, and Sharon Evans; and the recipients of the Outstanding Leader Awards for 2011: Lisa Palma (Happy Valley Elementary), Nicole Carberry (Lafayette Elementary), and Renee Sweeney (Lafayette Elementary).
