The Lincoln County Journal explains:
"Surrounded by brightly colored flowers in the Hickman Y. Fisher Memorial
Park, Louise Johnston explains how she and other volunteers transformed it.
Louise decided to turn the park into a "green park" for her Girl Scout Gold
Award Project... The money funding the project was raised through the
collection of recyclables. "When I was a Brownie, I liked the idea of
recycling," she elaborated, "so I started to collect cans." Louise has been
doing this for the last 12 years, after learning about environmental topics and
earning a recycling badge in Brownies."
