Girl Scout Troop 14595 collected 25 Hometown Hero boxes to be delivered to the often forgotten volunteers of the Steamboat Springs Animal Shelter & Routt County Humane Society. The girls also had the opportunity to take a tour of the animal shelter after hours! They learned how the shelter operates, what an Animal Control Officer does, and had many questions answered. It all culminated with playtime with the kitties and presenting the Hometown Hero boxes. After learning about the shelter, many of the girls are excited to return with their families to help walk dogs and play with the cats.
