Locks of Love

On Saturday May 10th Lara's Girl Scout troop, Troop #309, went to Distinct Design Group to donate hair to "Locks of Love". This is a program where you can donate hair to people who need wigs due to chemotherapy, etc. Six of the girls, including Lara, got their hair cut, and two of the parents, including Lisa, did also. Several of the other girls brought in pull tabs to donate for the Ronald McDonald House. They had pizza, cake, and lots of fun. They also received the awards that they earned from the recent G.S. cookie sales.
I should mention that the salon stayed open just for the troop, and three of the stylists were there to cut and style their hair.  The stylists were incredibly patient and friendly, and they did a great job with all the girls.  I can't say enough about their generosity in helping make this activity possible!
It was a great afternoon, and it was wonderful to see the girls doing so much for worthy causes. It really demonstrated what scouting is all about!
