Girl Scouts Plant Flowers, Beautify Garwood

GARWOOD, NJ — Garwood Girl Scouts of all ages came together to beautify the town and plant flowers.

Daisy Troop #41108, with their moms, planted flowers throughout Garwood, in town flower pots on Mother's Day weekend.

"As the Leader of Daisy Troop #41108, I'm proud of these girls and how enthusiastic they still are about doing community events," said Vanessa Schubring.

Brownie Troop #41290 joined in the planting event and planted in selected flower pots around town.

"Our Brownies, along with their moms, enjoyed spending time together and working collaboratively with other Girl Scout troops to beautify their community," said Rachel Herz, one of Troop #41290 leaders.

Senior Troop #40123 also participated. They planted flowers in the donated bench at Garwood Lincoln School for the last time and will be handing the bench off to the upcoming Daisy Troop #41005.

"One of the best things about Garwood is how our volunteer groups always work together. The Green Team loves collaborating with the Girl Scouts to keep Garwood beautiful!" said Councilwoman President Jennifer Blumenstock who leads the Green Team in Garwood.
