| Congratulations to our Board-Approved Award Recipients! During our 2022 Annual Meeting, which was held on Saturday, April 30 in Gastonia, we had the honor of awarding several Board-Approved Awards to our incredible volunteers. You can find all the recipients here. Congratulations! We also honored Barbara Smith with the first ever GSCP2P Juliette Gordon Low Lifetime Achievement Award. Barbara’s Girl Scout journey spans 84 years- beginning during World War II as a girl member, leading a troop of her own, serving as board president of the council and traveling the world (just to name a few of her Girl Scout adventures!).
