Girl Scouts do more than just sell cookies. Junior Girl Scouts and Brownies troops from Oak Harbor recently participated in a project to celebrate Girl Scout Birthday Week.

Girl Scouts do more than just sell cookies. Junior Girl Scouts and Brownies troops from Oak Harbor recently participated in a project to celebrate Girl Scout Birthday Week.

All troops were asked to donate baby girl items for layette baskets. Troops 42689 and 42013 were assigned to make the baskets and deliver them to two girl babies born at WGH during Girl Scout Birthday week.

One baby receiving a basket was Jaslyn Jade Sutton. Her parents are Stephanie Moss and Sylvester Sutton of Freeland.

“What a fantastic experience for us to share with Jaslyn when she gets older,” Moss said. “Please extend our thank you to the Girl Scouts; what a wonderful basket they made us with beautiful items.”

This year was extra special as the Girl Scouts were also celebrating their own 100th Birthday.
