Two local Girl Scouts from Troop 2259 in Pembroke have been honored with the Silver Award, the second-highest recognition in Girl Scouting and the highest achievement for Cadette Girl Scouts in grades 6-8. 

Cadettes Ami Griffin and Amakehs Mendoza received the award in October for a project aimed at teaching flag etiquette to young students and providing a respectful way for the community to retire American flags.
