impress  upon  the  public  the dangers of asphalt on animal paws in the
heat; and

  WHEREAS,  The  Bronze  Award  symbolizes  a  Girl   Scout   Junior's
accomplishments in Girl Scouting and community activities as she matures

evidence of  Olivia  Romano's  high  character  and  commitment  to  her
