Our next meeting will be Monday, June 17th at 7 pm at the City Central Administration Building.  The Cadettes of Girl Scout Troop 90384 will present their Silver Award project entitled "Memories of Green."
 
Below, please see a description of the project and video from the Cadette Troop leaders, Lori Walent and Janet Muckley.
 
The video is about the community members' Memories of Green - what they remember most, what they enjoyed, etc. One visit to the Akron Public Library to visit the Kepler-Coss Collection was all it took!  The girls were hooked! They loved all the stories - good and bad about Green.  Their view of Green as young ladies is so much different then our views as adults. 
 
The people interviewed  were:

Dorothy Brown
Steve Schmidt
Kathy Schmidt
Kathy Huth 
Tammy Trowbridge
Joan Charles
Dorothy Robinson
Anna  Thompson
Kenneth Muckley
Donald Muckley
Jerry Miller
 
Please come out and join us for this unique presentation.  The girls will have at least 50 DVDs of their film available to hand out to attendees - first come, first served!
