Second and third grade Girl Scout Brownies, working together under the leadership of Troop Leader Siri Phelps, began their project of beautifying the Gettysburg Rec Park with a focus on earth and animals last month.
The bird feeders the girls constructed out of recyclable bottles will be hung in the rec park in the spring, as the Brownies will also create a pollinator garden to develop bird and animal habitats.
