Right: Girls Scouts worked hard on Saturday, December 3 to host a very busy and well-attended Santa’s Workshop in the basement of the First Congregational Church in Grand Marais. The Girl Scouts made ornaments, helped cook breakfast, offered free daycare so parents could shop, and when the event was over, helped clean up. Proceeds of this festive event help to fund local Girl Scout activities.
