Girl Scouts wrote the following in thank you letters to Rep. Danny Crawford and Sen. Arthur Orr who contributed to the Scout House:
  • "Music is important to me because it makes me feel alive."
  • "Art is important to me because it lets me be creative on a piece of paper and music is important to me because it lets me make a beautiful sound with my own voice."
  • "Art is important to me because you can do whatever you want, there are no rules. Music is important to me because it can give you a good upbeat feeling."
  • "Music is important to me because it calms me down when I am mad or stressed."
  • "Art and music both help me express myself."
  • "Music is important to me because I have been wanting to learn to play music."

Their words are an inspiration to the Friends of the Scout House Committee. Their words remind us that we can Make Music. Make History. Make A Difference.

Rep. Danny Crawford of Athens is providing a $2,500 grant to the Friends of the Scout House Committee to go toward exterior renovations.

Thanks to his grant, the committee has now raised $26,315.

Committee members are working on a grant proposal to Dekko Foundation, and the community support, both financial and with in-kind work, gives us credibility and helps our chances.

"We appreciate Rep. Crawford recognizing the impact this project will have on Athens," said Committee Chairwoman Holly Hollman. "We are preserving an iconic site and turning an empty building into a music venue, a place that is once again a vital contributing part of our community.
