After months of preparation, Marissa Chirico and Stefanie Clark, both of Girl Scout Troop 872, earned the Girl Scout Silver Award at the Sussex Elks Lodge. The girls created a Patriotic Awareness Day, and held it on June 14 Flag Day to help encourage local children to become more patriotic. Children were invited to participate in a decorated bike parade. There was food by the Colesville Fire Department, as well as games, prizes donated by local businesses, and a table with information on American History presented by Jerry Magnus, a member of the local American Legion.
