#b#Girl Scout Silver Award#/b#
Kacy Lane and Kate McManus from West Windsor Girl Scout troop 70216 recently organized an event for their silver award project at Mercer Elementary, a school for disabled children. They put together a two-day event incorporating decorating cupcakes and healthy nutrition.
Together they taught third to eighth graders different ways to decorate and the different food groups. “I enjoyed giving the students a culinary experience that they would not have normally had at the school,” said McManus, a former West Windsor resident who moved to Pittsburgh last week.
Their girl scout leaders are Kate Henkle and May Rowland. “I learned that I can really make a difference in someone’s life,” says Lane, a West Windsor resident and a rising eighth grade student at Grover Middle School.
