A barred owl flaps its wings as Mona Rutger, of the Back to the Wild facility in Castalia, brings it into the audience at Rossford Public Library. During the May 9 program, Rutger discussed how animal injuries can be prevented and what to do if an injured or orphaned animal is found. Over the last 20 years, she has rescued nearly 40,000 animals and released more than half of them back to their native habitats.

Angela Pantorno of Perrysburg received the Gold Award from Girl Scouts of Western Ohio in a ceremony held April 18 at Tamaron Country Club.
The Girl Scout Gold Award is the highest award that Girl Scouts, ages 14-18 may earn. The efforts put forth to earn this award express a special commitment by the recipients to themselves, their community and their future.
The required steps for this award are chosen to help Girl Scouts develop skills, practice leadership, explore career possibilities and learn more about themselves. The final step in earning this award is the Gold Award Project. This project is an extension and a combination of all that girls have learned through previous Girl Scout activities.
Angela is a junior at Perrysburg High School and is the daughter of Michael and Elaine Pantorno.

TOLEDO — Area Girl Scouts were among the 2,000 who gathered Saturday at the Toledo Museum of Art to celebrate the anniversary of the first chartered council in the nation.
An Ohio Historical Marker permanently recognizing Toledo was placed at the museum.
On May 6, 1917, Girl Scouts founder Juliette Gordon Low signed a charter making the Toledo Council the first chartered Girl Scout council in the nation.
In 1918, outlying towns including Bowling Green, Maumee, Rossford, Weston and Perrysburg, joined the Toledo Council. In 1962, all of Wood County became part of the council.
The drive for the historical marker and its dedication were coordinated by local Girl Scout historians Beverly Miner and Judy Myerholtz, both of Bowling Green.
After the dedication ceremony, about 1,600 scouts spent the night in the museum.
The girls ate pizza, did art workshops, conducted flashlight tours, listened to a DJ and had a sleep-over in the museum.
