Working with only one scout can be difficult because there is not the same amount of peer support. But it was definitely a chance for her to find her passion and forge her own path. That she did.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-5555 size-thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/makingfriends.com\/girl-scout-leader\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/bronze-shelter-4-150x150.png\" alt=\"Bronze Award: Helping Pets Get Adopted\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It turned out that many of the animals coming into our county animal shelter were having their photos taken on the back of the animal shelter truck or inside cages. In order to make the dogs and cats more adoptable looking, the shelter tried to do photo shoots. They did not have many props so that&#8217;s where this Bronze award project came in. Our scout organized a sewing event for volunteers to come together and learn how to sew.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-5537 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/makingfriends.com\/girl-scout-leader\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Bronze-shelter-3-up-169x300.jpg\" alt=\"Bronze Award: Helping Pets Get Adopted\" width=\"169\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/makingfriends.com\/girl-scout-leader\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Bronze-shelter-3-up-169x300.jpg 169w, https:\/\/makingfriends.com\/girl-scout-leader\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Bronze-shelter-3-up-768x1365.jpg 768w, https:\/\/makingfriends.com\/girl-scout-leader\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Bronze-shelter-3-up-576x1024.jpg 576w, https:\/\/makingfriends.com\/girl-scout-leader\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Bronze-shelter-3-up-300x533.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 169px) 100vw, 169px\" \/>The group was small, but this made more time for lots of one on one instruction! We used a free bandana pattern offered by Avilo Charlotte and our line scout cut out pattern templates for the group to use, ranging from extra small to extra large. After a few hours, several bandanas in festive fabrics had been made. The next business day, she delivered her donations to the shelter.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-5535 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/makingfriends.com\/girl-scout-leader\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Bronze-Shelter-2-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"Bronze Award: Helping Pets Get Adopted\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/makingfriends.com\/girl-scout-leader\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Bronze-Shelter-2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/makingfriends.com\/girl-scout-leader\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Bronze-Shelter-2-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/makingfriends.com\/girl-scout-leader\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Bronze-Shelter-2-1024x576.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>They were very well received!
