JACKSON — Caitlyn Montgomery of Jackson received her Girl Scout Gold Award during a ceremony at the Woodlake Country Club, Lakewood.
The Girl Scouts of the Jersey Shore honored 30 young women with the Gold Award during the June 3 event that was sponsored by the New Jersey Education Association.
According to a press release, Caitlyn’s Gold Award project consisted of creating a music library at Jackson Memorial High School. With the help of friends and family members, she transformed a messy room where nothing could be found into an organized music library in which all music has been labeled and categorized into a new music library system so that anyone can find what they are looking for.
“Earning the Girl Scout Gold Award designation is truly a remarkable achievement and these young women exemplify leadership in all its forms,” said Susan H. Mc- Clure, chief executive officer of Girl Scouts of the Jersey Shore. “Each young woman saw a need in her community and around the world and took action. This extraordinary dedication, perseverance and leadership is making the world a better place.”
