Spearheaded by local Girl Scouts who are celebrating the 80th birthday of Girl Scouts this year with the theme “Caring for the Earth,” and joined by the Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts and 4-H’ers, local youths are starting a community recycling effort.

Student of the Week is Bridget Hoopes, a freshman at WHS who was chosen for her abilities in her English I class. Bridget is the daughter of Cliff and Patricia Hoopes of Whitehall.
