| | | | | | Girl Scout Troop 30618 members Hannah Clark and Maddie Dolan worked more than 50 hours each toward their Girl Scout Silver Award interacting with women and children at the Elizabeth House in Oakland. The Silver Award is the second highest award girls can earn in the Girls Scouts. The girls hosted two holiday celebrations for the residents of the Elizabeth House complete with cookie decorating, music sing-a-longs, games, and card making. They called upon local businesses, including: Republic of Cake, Powell's Sweet Shoppe, Orchard Nursery and Stevens Printing for party supplies and sweet treats. The girls also recruited friends and family to donate books and toys for the young children living in the house. Clark and Dolan worked with the Elizabeth House volunteer coordinator to develop a 'best practices' hospitality reference book for future volunteers to utilize. Their Silver Award project was completed in August 2012.
