ATLANTA – Marianna Hackney of Dalton was among 41 Girl Scouts from the Girl Scout Council of Northwest Georgia, Inc. who recently earned the Girl Scout Gold Award, the highest award a girl can earn in Girl Scouting.
A girl who earns the Girl Scout Gold Award completes components that help her build skills in leadership, communication, time management, presentation, delegation, interpersonal relationships, responsibility and commitment. She explores and demonstrates setting short- and long-term goals, while developing her own self-potential and values. She then combines all of the skills that she has gained through this process to design, plan, implement and evaluate a 65-hour project that makes a significant difference in her community. This process takes three to four years to complete.
