 We are Cadettes from Portland TX Girl Scout troop 9851, (Left to right, Elizabeth Longo ,12, Ashley Hooten ,12, and Meagan Norris ,13). We created this website for P.A.L.S. to help the animal get good loving homes. We also made a Girl Scout patch for other Girl Scouts to earn by helping P.A.L.S. We did this project for our Girl Scout silver award the highest award that you can earn as a Cadette Girl Scout. We choose this project because we all love and care about the animals. We would like to thank Nicholas Longo for his time in helping us with his connections and teaching us some of his expertise in the field of web design for this website, and Vinny Lingham (Yola owner) for donating the website creator (Yola) which we used to design the P.A.L.S. website, the domain name and hosting for 5 years.

 Portland TX Girl Scout Troop 9851 donated to P.A.L.S. Animal Shelter one ton of dog/cat food (literally), plus 65 stainless steel water buckets ,two pools for the ducks and dogs and made toys for the dogs and cats and more! Three of the girls (Madison Villarreal, Victoria Longo, Lauren Donka) also received a bronze award, which is the highest award for their Junior-rank. Elizabeth Longo worked the same amount of hours on the project. She has already earned her bronze award last year and was helping because she believed in the project .We would like to thank Kmart, Starbucks, and The Tractor Supply Co. for all of their participation and help with this project. We would also like to thank all of the generous and caring people that helped make this project work by donating and helping the animals. |
My name is Manuel Luis “Louie” Garcia. I am 15 years old and a Life Scout going for my Eagle rank at Troop 289. I am a sophomore at Carroll High School. I started scouting in the 5th grade as a Webelo II and have enjoyed it ever since. What I enjoy most about scouting is the comradery between the scouts. They really came through for me every time I asked for volunteers. Without them, there is no way I could’ve completed this project at P.A.L.S. The reason I chose to help out P.A.L.S. for my Eagle project is because animals and pets have always had a place close to my heart. |
