Girl Scouts of Warren County will be busy over the next three weeks trying to make at least 100 pinwheels to be placed on The Lot in honor of peace, with a challenge to the community to match it.“This is our third consecutive year of participating in the Pinwheels for Peace project,” said Yolanda Scott, the service unit manager in Warren County.This year, the celebration is also recognizing a milestone as Girl Scouts USA is celebrating 100 years. “We hope to honor that by planting at least 100 pinwheels,” said Scott. “We are inviting the community to plant 100, or even more, pinwheels as well.”The Pinwheels for Peace project was started by art teachers at a Florida school as a way for students to creatively express their views about peace as part of International Day of Peace.
