This contest which asks for teens to describe how they are
Remarkable, Energetic, Aspirational Leaders was exclusive to Girl Scouts
between the ages of 13-19 who are working to make the world a better place in
their local communities and beyond.
The R.E.A.L. Girl winners (and twin sisters), Nina and Grace
Demet, 17, of Lake Forest, IL, are featured on the cover of the issue and in an
article profiling their many high school and extracurricular activities. The
girls have been Girl Scouts in the Girl Scouts of Greater Chicago and Northwest
Indiana Council for 10 years. They both received their Gold Award in 2010 and their
Green Glamour Clothing Exchange project—on which their Gold Award was based—is
still being held yearly.
