Jana strikes gold

Jana Mlodzianowski became a Girl Scout because most of her friends were in a troop.

But 10 years later, Mlodzianowski will receive an award that Girl Scouts, including those friends, are given. Her years of commitment and effort have earned her the Gold Award - the highest achievement a Girl Scout can attain.

To win the award, Mlodzianowski completed a 65-hour community project with the Weedsport Public Library to log online the summer reading of elementary school students in the area last year.
