WILMINGTON, MA — Girl Scouts of Eastern Massachusetts recognized volunteer Julie Hall, of Wilmington, for her service to girls and the community.
The award was presented at GSEMA’s annual Volunteer Recognition Luncheon in May at the Sheraton Framingham Hotel. More than 100 individuals and three service units — a group of volunteers representing a town or several towns — from across eastern Massachusetts were honored for their longstanding service to the Girl Scouting community.
Hall was presented the Girl Scouts of the USA Honor Pin. The award recognizes volunteers actively providing outstanding service in support of the Girl Scout Leadership Experience in two or more geographic areas or program delivery audiences.
A Girl Scout for 20 years, Hall currently serves as regional delegate, service unit new leader mentor, troop cookie coordinator, and troop leader. Hall has helped design and create several courses for the GSEMA LEAD Online learning platform so that all volunteers have instant and reliable access to training. Hall helps support troops with questions and facilitating outdoor experiences. Hall is always willing to come forward and assist, bringing along dedication and a lifetime love of Girl Scouting.
“Our Girl Scout volunteers are incredibly special people who are making a lasting impact on the next generation of girls. They are mentors, teachers, role models, and cheerleaders who dedicate countless hours to giving girls the unique experience of a supportive, all-girl environment where they can take healthy risks, dream big, and learn to lead,” said Carrie Weatherbee, GSEMA chief membership services officer. “We’re so grateful to the more than 15,000 dedicated local individuals who believe so deeply in our mission to build girls of courage, confidence, and character and make the world a better place, and it is an honor to celebrate them.”
Nominated by their peers and council staff, these volunteers have been recognized for giving service that is above and beyond the expectations of their position. All awards require one nomination, one endorsement and the approval of Girl Scouts of Eastern Massachusetts’ board of directors.
