Local Girl Scout Volunteers Recognized for Outstanding Service

Girl Scouts of the Missouri Heartland recently recognized area volunteers for their outstanding service in Girl Scouting. The Volunteer of Excellence Pin was presented to Jennifer Landewee of Cape Girardeau. The Volunteer of Excellence Pin recognizes volunteers for outstanding service in direct partnership with girls or who have contributed outstanding service in support of our council's mission delivery to girl and adult members.

The Appreciation Pin was presented to volunteers Giboney Sparks and Laura Clubb both of Cape Girardeau. The Appreciation Pin is given to recognize an individual's exemplary service in support of delivering the Girl Scout Leadership Experience. This service, which has had measurable impact on one geographic area of service, helps to reach and surpass the mission-delivery goals of the area.

The Honor Pin was presented to Karen Hann of Jackson. The Honor Pin is given to recognize an individual's exemplary service in support of delivering the Girl Scout Leadership Experience, which has had measurable impact on two or more geographic areas of service, allowing the council to reach and surpass its mission-delivery goals.

"It is because of the commitment, generosity, and heart of our volunteers that girls across our council grow in courage, gain confidence, and develop character," said CEO Anne Soots. "We offer our congratulations and deep appreciation to our volunteers who have given their time to mentor and change the lives of girls."
