Emily Fennell of Raleigh has earned the Gold Award, the highest achievement in Girl Scouting.

For her Gold project, Emily created a game called “The Wheel of Environmental Knowledge,” where participants spun a wheel, landed on a category, answered an environmental science question and won a prize. Her aim was to teach adults and children about reducing pollution and fossil fuel consumption.

Emily, the daughter of Tim Fennell and Susan Fennell Sumner, is a senior at Broughton High School and a member of Troop 1770, led by her mother and Janet Littlejohn.
