Rebecca Marie Stokeley, Victoria Harmon, & Kelsey Jones
are members of Junior Girl Scout Troop 20642. They are
currently working on their bronze award, which is the
highest award a Junior Girl Scout can earn. They have
chosen paper recycling as their project. They need your
help! The girls will be placing recycling containers in each
narthex and in the upper hallway for you to place your
unwanted paper and bulletins. They will be responsible for
seeing that the containers are emptied on a timely basis and
taken to recycling bins. Please put only paper in these
boxes!
Thanks so much for your assistance. If you have questions, please see Rebecca Marie, Victoria or Kelsey.
