It was only a matter of time before members of local Girl Scout troop #4274 marched down our street with green paint and stencils in hand. We saw them today as we were heading for an outing on the final day of Thanksgiving weekend. They are on a mission to stencil "Chesapeake Bay Drainage" onto the sewers of the Indian Spring neighborhood, as part of the ongoing environmental awareness campaign to save the Bay. The girls who led this project are Meredith Metcalf and Madeleine Varmer, both from Blair. They painted over 40 storm drains in the last 2 weekends. Those indelible green messages will likely stay put for several years, long after these Girl Scouts have passed into adulthood. Thanks to them and their troop leaders for doing this.
Yay! I saw them, too, in the middle of a busy weekend filled with birthday parties. Thanks for contributing to a better enviornment!
