 Girl Scouts Spirit of Nebraska -- Scouting is more than merit badges and camping. The young people’s projects can affect our entire community. Kaitlin, a high school student, chose a difficult topic for her Girl Scout activity; she organized a local health fair aimed at addressing our community’s alarming rate of sexually-transmitted disease (STD). She asked a charity and a local church to host the event, and she lined up 4 local health organizations to participate, including the Douglas County Health Department. Her event blueprint is now being used to plan similar events, all in the effort to increase local health awareness and education.
