Ausable Valley Girl Scouts Present a Gift to Peru
By John T. Ryan
Peru – The Heyworth-Mason Dog Park is an even more fun place for dogs thanks to Girl Scout Troop 4107 of Ausable Valley Central School. This afternoon cadet scouts Abigail Perky, Kylee Bresett and Savannah Pray accompanied by Troop Leaders Aubrey Bresett and Denise Perky presented a dog agility piece to Town Supervisor Brandy McDonald and Deputy Supervisor Jim Douglass.
The scouts constructed the agility piece as part of their Girl Scout Silver Award project. They’d like to add to it in the future to make an obstacle course. Abigail Perky explained, “We wanted to help the dogs have fun and the dog park is in our area.” Kylee Bresett added, “We have dogs and we like them.” How did the get the idea? Kylee said, “We’ve watched dog shows on Youtube.” Her mom Aubrey Bresett added, “Remember the dog show we saw in Elizabethtown. It was like the shows you see on TV and you really liked it. All our troop’s service projects usually involve animals. We have a lot of animal lovers.”
It took coaxing to get Lilly and Marley through the agility piece, but they completed the task. Abigail Perky’s Great Dane Tyson wasn’t at all interested, but no one argued with him.
