Girl Scout Troop 10074 planted 44 Ponderosa pine seedlings Sunday, Oct. 6 near the Perimeter Trail in the Cerro Grande burn scar. The seedlings were grown by a local woman from seeds from the Ponderosa pine in her backyard.  Troop 10074 would like to thank her, and also Eric Peterson of the Los Alamos County Parks, Recreation, and Open Spaces Division for providing tools for the project.  If you know a girl who is interested in joining Girl Scouts, you can contact Grace Wiele at gwiele@nmgirlscouts.org.
