Girl Scouts complete "Rain Gardens" Project at City Hall



Under the direction of Staff Engineer Emily Boswell, Girl Scout Troop # 10125 worked hard on developing “rain gardens” for a beautification project at City Hall. The finished project is impressive and will be a welcome addition to City Hall!


Troop Leader Shelly Cheng reported that Girl Scouts working on their Junior Bronze Award who worked on the project included Megan Cheng, Emily Green, Marissa Crowell and Taryn Krier. Other Brownies and family members also assisted in the all day project.


A “rain garden” not only beautifies the area, but also helps with the drainage of the area and helps retain and treat stormwater runoff.


Our thanks to all who helped on this project!
