2025 Reflections Program

LILLIAN HENROID An avid camper, Lillian earned her Girl Scout Gold Award by creating, editing and publishing 24 detailed videos to support Girl Scout volunteers before they take their troops to a Girl Scouts of Eastern Missouri camp property for the first time. Her video series detailed features of each campsite at Camp Tuckaho in Troy, MO, and Camp Fiddlecreek in Labadie, MO. Troop volunteers can use the videos to be more prepared and visualize the units before they camp at the properties with their Girl Scouts. Lillian collaborated with Girl Scout Camp Rangers to ensure she provided the most current information and important details. She shared her videos with more than 30 local Girl Scout troops, and she also sent them to neighboring Girl Scout councils in case their members visit our camps in the future. "One of the things I learned about myself is that while I am shy, I can be an effective communicator with just a little bit of confidence." LYDIA HINES To earn the Girl Scout Gold Award, Lydia wanted to help widen the audience and reach for the Lindbergh Arts Magazine, Apotheosis, a student-produced publication displaying the different forms of art created within the district. By turning Apotheosis into both a digital and physical publication, Lydia discovered that she could more easily share the students’ artwork outside of the district. Through a weekly school e-newsletter, she marketed the publication to her student body, asking for submissions and providing QR codes to digital editions. Additionally, the magazine was distributed to the St. Louis Women’s Club to help share the students’ work with members of the metro area. “Before earning my Gold Award, I worried about how I would be teaching others and taking charge of a classroom. This project helped me find the part of myself that could do those things. Helping others learn is truly something I look forward to committing my life to.”
