Seniors on the route for the Henry County Senior Center Home Delivered Meals program received a surprise this week. Girl Scouts Troop 4444 in Kewanee delivered 250 boxes of Girl Scout Cookies to the Senior Center to distributed to those receiving meals from the Senior Center. The donations came from a yearly tradition among Troop 4444 to not only sell cookies to anyone who would like to buy a box, but also to encourage people to buy cookies for donation. Jacque Komnick with the Girl Scouts tells WKEI that for the past four years people have been donating boxes of cookies to be sent to soldiers overseas as well as for donation to Abilities Plus. This year, even more generous cookie lovers donated enough boxes of Girl Scout Cookies to donate 75 boxes to Abilities Plus and the 250 boxes that were donated to the Senior Center. Earlier this week, the Girl Scouts delivered their donation to the Senior Center and you can see the joy they take in helping in the photos below courtesy of Jacque Komnick…
