Strong4Life is a program ran by Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta that is determined to extirpate childhood obesity. Helen D., a Girl Scout, teamed up with this program over the summer to educate girls about nutrition.
Lime Green Giraffe: What level of Girl Scouting are you?
Helen D.: Ambassador
LGG: Please explain what you did for your Strong 4 Life project.
HD: I taught four lessons for the Strong 4 Life program at Camp Loblolly day camp for a week
LGG: Was this project a part of a Service Unit project or just volunteer work? HD: I volunteered.
LGG: Would you do a project like this again?
HD: Yes
LGG: What was the most enjoyable part of the project?
HD: The most enjoyable part was seeing the kids’ reactions when I pulled out lard to show how much fat was in a hamburger.
LGG: What was the least enjoyable part of this project?
HD: The training because its location was inconvenient.
LGG: What did you learn from this experience?
HD: I learned how to teach children better and how to be patient with kids.
LGG: Is this a project you would recommend for other Girl Scouts?
HD: Yes, most definitely. It’s a really great program, and you can earn service hours!
