Nicolette J. from Girl Scout Troop 17155 noticed that only 37% of eligible 18-19 year olds showed up to cast a ballot in the 2018 mid-term election, and her young adult high school peers did not know how to register to vote. To encourage young adults to take action with her Gold Award project, she created a voting registration toolkit and attended high school public events with contact-less QR codes to help register students right away—a resource the League of Women Voters will continue to utilize. She also created over 100-yard signs and placed them in her community.
This is part of a Gold Award Cache Series completed as part of a Gold Award project. A series of geocaches have been placed in the area recognizing historical women and Girl Scout Gold Award projects.
