Members of the Chenango Valley Girl Scout Troop 30036 raised money for a Buddy Bench to ensure Chenango Bridge Elementary students could always find a friend when needed. They wanted to help create an influence in the community and help improve the world around them.
The bench was the culmination of the troop's Bronze Award. The girls completed the Agency of Change Girl Scout Journey, which encourages leadership in one’s self, in a team and in their community.
Awesome job and thank you to all who helped to make this project possible! The district would also like to thank the members of the Chenango Valley Facilities and Operations Department who helped to install the bench!
CV hopes this bench serves as a place for students to build friendships for many years to come.
