Ruston-based Brownie Girl Scouts from Troop 11 have completed work allowing them to earn the “It’s Your Story – Tell It” journey badge.
One of the group’s projects was to write a biography poem, which they shared recently in front of an audience at the Historic Fire Station, where Ruston Main Street Director Amy Stegall also spoke with the girls about leadership, careers, strengths, interests and using one’s abilities to make the community a better place.

The Brownies were able to choose their preferred format for the poems, and some have been below.

I wonder if I can explore.
I wish for a rainbow.
I dream about unicorns.
I feel happy.
I plan to explore the world.
I am a Girl Scout.
